El Niño outlook points to warmer winter, increased spring snow chances in Cheyenne
CHEYENNE — A developing El Niño could bring increased chances for snowfall to Cheyenne later in the winter and into the spring, even as seasonal forecasts lean toward above-average temperatures through fall and midwinter. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Climate Prediction Center released its official winter outlook for the 2026-27 season last week. The National Weather Service (NWS) Cheyenne office took this information and created a separate outlook for the southeast Wyoming region. Noah Brauer, an NWS Cheyenne meteorologist, explained what the predictions mean for Cheyenne. The winter outlook indicates El Niño conditions are expected to influence weather patterns across the country before weakening in the first quarter of 2027. The current El Niño event is the second-strongest on record — which goes back to 1950 — for this time of year, behind only the 1997-98 event, according to the NWS Cheyenne outlook.

El Nino will impact SE Wyoming weather, state's ACT scores mixed
Good morning, and Happy Friday! The long-range winter forecast is in, and it's ... a bit uncertain. Surprised? (Be nice to our local meteorologists now. They're a good bunch of folks.) According to reporter Alyssa Tolman's summary of the NWS 2026-27 winter outlook , a developing El Niño could bring increased chances for snowfall to Cheyenne later in the winter and into the spring, even as seasonal forecasts lean toward above-average temperatures through fall and midwinter. Here's hoping at least the mountains get a healthy amount of snow. In education news, the Wyoming Department of Education reported Thursday that the average ACT composite score for the state's 11th graders last year is in the top five among states that require all students to take the exam, sitting in second place behind Illinois. Maria Weyne breaks down all of the scores for local schools. It will almost certainly come as no surprise that Wyoming's all-Republican congressional delegation is backing the GOP's candidates for governor and Congress, but Owen Houtakker wrote about it anyway (darn that editor!).
