Special Weather Statement issued May 13 at 12:29PM MDT by NWS Cheyenne WY

Effective: Wed May 13, 2026, 12:29 PM
Expires: Fri May 15, 2026, 7:00 PM

A zonal flow pattern over southeast Wyoming will lead to strong winds on both Thursday and Friday. Wind gusts in excess of 45 MPH are expected on Thursday and 35 MPH on Friday. A dry airmass in place both days will lead to relative humidity values below 10 percent. Overnight humidity recoveries Wednesday and Thursday night will also be poor. The combination of wind and extremely dry conditions will lead to increased fire danger. However, given recent moisture and green up of vegetation across the area, fuels are currently non-critical. Despite this, outdoor burning is still not recommended given the conditions on Thursday and Friday. Use caution, don't be the spark!

The times presented here are based upon the solunar theory, which is the idea that the movements of fish and other animals are affected by the location of the sun and moon. The major periods are believed to be the times of the greatest animal activity and occur when the moon is directly overhead or underfoot (lunar transits). The minor periods also see increased activity and occur when the moon is rising or setting. The strongest activity occurs during full or new moons, and the weakest during quarter or three quarter moons. This is indicated by the Action Rating.
