A good portion of Wyoming is going to see some pretty low temps. tonight and early Mon. morning. There are freeze warnings for these areas:
Cody Foothills
Lander Foothills
Natrona Lower Elevations
North Big Horn Basin
Northeast Johnson
Southeast Big Horn Basin
Southeast Johnson
Southwest Big Horn Basin
Upper Wind River Basin
Wind River Basin
Might be a good idea to cover some of those tender plants and vegis if you haven't done so already.

I've heard that Weston County has similar forecasts - below freezing expected for temps.
I'd like to say that I would feel sorry for you all  I am enjoying the bluest of skies and 72º (which feels closer to eighty when in Wyoming)  |

I heard about the tornado warnings over in that area! I didn't know one actually touched down though. Boy that one day there was 2 or 3 storms that rolled through Sheridan...

Here the official report. No injuries was the big thing.
A large tornado ripped across the Bear Lodge Mountains of northeastern Wyoming the evening of July 13, toppling trees and destroying buildings on a ranch.
Much of the roof was torn off the house on the ranch. A large wooden barn and two metal garages were totally demolished. Roofing and siding were torn from a mobile home.
A survey by the National Weather Service estimated the winds reached 120 to 130 mph based on the extent of damage. The tornado was given a rating of EF2 on the Enhanced Fujita Scale ranking of zero through five.
An aerial survey conducted by the State of Wyoming indicated the tornado touched down west of Cook Lake and traveled in an east-southeast direction for 9.5 miles before dissipating just west of Wyoming Highway 111 and north of Interstate 90. The tornado itself was about a half mile wide, but strong winds feeding into the funnel downed trees in a mile wide swath across much of the forested areas, which blocked many Forest Service roads.
