A Winter Storm Warning has been issued for the Sierra Madre Range, where a combination of 8-12 inches of snow and very strong winds will combine to create hazardous winter weather conditions

Strong winds are expected to create ground blizzard conditions, even though no new snowfall is expected.

Forecasters with the Cheyenne Office of the National Weather Service are saying there is a possibility that a "potent weather system" could hit southeast Wyoming next week.

A look at the week ahead forecast for southeast Wyoming and Nebraska Panhandle, in one word cold!

Very cold temperatures behind the front with morning lows in the single digits for Friday and Saturday.

Forecasters are still hashing out some of the details, but it looks like a blast of winter weather is headed our way.

If you think Saturday was a windy day in southeast Wyoming even by the windblown standards of the Cowboy State, you are right.

Blow-offs and blow overs of lightweight and/or high-profile vehicles will be likely in susceptible locations.

The weather service warns that these won't just be your typical Wyoming winds.

But most of the rest of interstate 80 east of Rawlins is reporting slick conditions and, in many areas, poor visibility.
