  • Stay hydrated and stock up on clean drinking water to get you through multiple days of heat.
  • Reschedule outdoor activities for cooler times of the day, and take breaks in the shade or air conditioning.
  • Cover windows with curtains or shades, or use window reflectors designed to reflect heat back outside. 
  • Check on friends, family, and neighbors, especially those who do not have air conditioning or spend much of their time alone. 

Make sure you know the signs of heat-related illness and how to respond.

Heat Advisories and Extreme Heat Warnings

Created by the NWS Cheyenne WFO

6AM 7/26 - Another very hot day is expected Sunday across the area. Heat Advisories and Extreme Heat Warnings remain in effect until 9PM this evening. Look for high temperatures similar to Saturday, reaching the low to mid 90s in Rawlins, Laramie, and Saratoga, upper 90s in Cheyenne, and 100s for remaining areas of the High Plains. Note: Due to an acceleration in the arrival of monsoon moisture on Monday, forecast high temperatures have decreased slightly. Therefore, the Heat Advisory and Extreme Heat Warning will now expire at 9PM today.
