The Cheyenne Office of the National Weather Service says unsettled weather is expected in southeast Wyoming next week, including snowfall which could become heavy at higher elevations.

The agency posted this statement on it's website:

We're looking at a fairly active week weather-wise for next week. There will be chances for snow or a rain/snow mix, depending on where you're at each day through Thursday. Look for snow west of the Laramie Range, with a mix east. We have a series of lows forecast to move through the area. Mountains are expected to get heavy snowfall and will likely need winter headlines. Lower elevations may see light snow amounts. Finally begin to dry out Friday as high pressure begins to build into the area. Stay tuned!
