Coldest Morning of the Fall thus far

Coldest Morning of the Fall thus far

Temperatures dipped to the lower teens and single digits over much of Western Wyoming Tuesday morning.  There were a few spots below zero, notably in the higher valleys around Pinedale and Bondurant.

In Star Valley the lowest observed was 4 above in Smoot followed by 9 above in Afton.  Although it was 14 above in Alpine, the nighttime winds blowing out of the Snake River Canyon up to 20 mph provided a wind chill near zero.

Following is a plot of minimum temperatures observed around the area.
