.SHORT TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
Issued at 128 PM MST Wed Nov 4 2026

Today, Our portion of the Intermountain West is in between two low
pressure systems. There is an area of high pressure that spans
across Montana that is forming a Rex block preventing the low
pressure system that is moving through Utah and Colorado from taking
a more northern track into our area. Mid to low level cloud cover
will be moving through our area tonight. This will keep our
overnight temperatures around 30 degrees tonight for the low
elevations and around 25 degrees for Rawlins and Laramie. 700mb
temperatures rise slightly tomorrow (from -2C to 0/1C). The surface
temperatures will be a touch warmer but generally unnoticeable when
compared to today. The upper level ridge will start to clear out the
clouds Thursday morning but the clouds will move back in Thursday
night with the next approaching short wave.

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 128 PM MST Wed Nov 4 2026

Friday...A slow moving shortwave trough aloft sweeps from western
Wyoming in the morning, to eastern Wyoming by evening, spawning a
slight chance of showers for our Snowy and Sierra Madre Ranges and
southern Laramie Valley, with dry conditions elsewhere. Cooler
temperatures for most locations due to an increase in cloud cover
and a passing weak cold front.

Saturday...Will see a slow warming trend though tempered by
northerly flow aloft. Low and mid levels look too dry for any
precipitation.

Sunday...The warming trend continues as the ridge aloft builds
across our counties, helping to produce a surface lee trough across
eastern Wyoming. 700 mb temperatures near 7 Celsius will yield
maximum temperatures from the mid 50s to mid 60s.

Monday-Wednesday...Dry west northwest flow aloft prevails with a few
shortwave troughs aloft passing by, though with minimal low and mid
level moisture, no precipitation expected. High temperatures nearly
the same each day based on 700 mb temperatures.

conditions at all terminals for the remainder of the night. Clouds
will decrease Thursday morning with winds remaining light.
