The Cheyenne Office of the National Weather Service has issued a weather statement for two rounds of severe weather that are possible in parts of eastern Wyoming and the Nebraska Panhandle starting later today. The agency issued an email that included the following key points: ● Isolated to scattered strong to severe thunderstorms possible today and tonight. ●...

Another twister touched down on Monday near Kimball, Nebraska.

An isolated tornado or two cannot be ruled out.

Up to tennis ball sized hail will be possible with the strongest storms in the late afternoon while 70+ mph wind gusts will be possible.

The greatest tornado risk will be maximized over far southeast Wyoming from Wheatland to Cheyenne, eastward toward Pine Bluffs and Torrington.

The Cheyenne Offie of the National Weather Service is forecasting a "big weather" day, with strong winds, large hail and possible tornadoes.

The agency says possible hazards include tornadoes, winds of up to 80 miles per hour, and baseball size hail.

Very large hail (possibly to baseballs), downburst winds to 70 mph and a few tornadoes are possible Wednesday afternoon through mid evening for the area.

A series of warnings were issued, and Cheyenne's emergency sirens were alerted at one point.

Tornado watch issued for areas of Albany and Laramie County.
