So, what does the atmosphere have in store for Winter 2022-2023 in Wyoming? The answer probably won't surprise you. According to the Farmers' Almanac, it's going to be extremely chilly! The Rockies will be particularly hard hit, according to the Almanac, with snow storms a strong possibility.
You read that correctly -- this winter is going to be downright "glacial." There's a reason why the Farmers' Almanac calls Wyoming part of the "Hibernation Zone." Along with snow, below-average cold temperatures will grip the state. Be sure to dig out your gloves, hats, and wool socks, because you're going to need them this year!
