Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly, and welcome to the Wyoming Weather Podcast. It's Saturday, February 17th. Folks, Wyoming woke up angry today. We're talking single digits across the board. The kind of cold where your nose hairs freeze before you reach the truck. Western Wyoming sits at 6 degrees right now. Central regions? Nine degrees. Southeast nudges up to 10. Here's the thing.
