CHEYENNE, Wyo. (Wyoming News Now) – Most locations were dry for Saturday, but looking a little warmer as we head into Sunday.

Heading into tonight, while some lingering clouds are possible early we clear out pretty quick. Low temperatures into the 40s and 50s around our region. Folks in far western Wyoming and into the mountains will be into the 30s tonight.

As we kick off Sunday, folks mainly in central to west central Wyoming (Douglas, Casper, Riverton to Jackson) may experience a haze. Westerly flow will allow for some smoke from the Fish Creek fire to move into the area. This may degrade air quality at times, especially in the Wind River to Teton Mountains.

Other than some smoke in the skies, we will see some sunshine and a few afternoon clouds. A stay shower or storm is not out of the question, especially in southeast Wyoming and northern portions of Colorado. High temperatures into the 80s and 90s. Temperatures in the 70s west of the Continental Divide.
