Many are hoping for a Wyoming White Christmas, but global weather patterns mean many will have to keep hoping.
The US Department of Agriculture released their first snow report for Water Year 2021 – which encompasses the entire 2020-2021 winter season. The overall assessment of “snow water” so far is lower than historic medians across the entire state. Much lower.

Basins across the state are reporting that the current level of snow pack is low. The lowest was recorded in eastern Wyoming – the South Platte Basin at the southeast corner of the state is so “dry” it can only account for 11% of the median value for this time of year.
Fingers crossed for heavy snow
