Hail

Hail will be the primary threat with these storms and a couple of the storms may produce up to ping pong ball size hail.

The Cheyenne Office of the National Weather Service says severe thunderstorms are possible in southeast Wyoming today [Sept. 12] and tomorrow.

Portions of southeast Wyoming and the Nebraska Panhandle could see small hail, 40 to 60 mph wind gusts and heavy rain Friday afternoon and evening.

All modes of severe thunderstorm weather are possible, but the main hazard will be large hail to the size of golfballs.

There's a chance some strong thunderstorms could fire up this afternoon and evening, bringing gusty winds and small hail.

The main threats associated with these storms will be strong downburst winds to 70 mph, lightning, and hail up to golf balls are possible.

Highs in the 80s and 90s are expected today and tomorrow before another round of thunderstorms return late tomorrow afternoon.

Tuesday night became pretty crazy, scary, and at times, dangerous, around southeast Wyoming with a hail storm that came through in didn't let up for a few hours. Not only was there plenty of hail that would lead to flash flooding that made for unsafe driving conditions in spots, and also power outages throughout parts of Cheyenne.

The latest update says golf ball size hail, rather than tennis ball size, is possible. But the area possibly at risk for a tornado has been extended further into southeast Wyoming.
