The episode as NWS CYS wrote it up.
A shortwave trough axis extending from western Wyoming south and west to the Four Corners with an associated low center and cold front passed over the forecast region creting a tight pressure gradient and strong subsidence in its wake. Most of the wind prone area across southeastern Wyoming experienced wind gusts reaching into the low 60 mph range. High peaks across the Sierra Madre and Snowy Range received over a foot of snow as part of the frontal passage over the area. The eastern portion of Laramie County had a heavy snowband move across the Albin area dropping up to six inches of snow.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cheyenne WY
431 AM MST Fri Mar 8 2019
.SHORT TERM...(Today and Saturday)
Issued at 322 AM MST Fri Mar 8 2019
Valley freezing fog is persisting this morning across the North
Platte River from Goshen County in Wyoming through portions of the
NE Panhandle. KAIA, KTOR, and KBFF have been socked in with under
half mile visibility since late Thursday night. A freezing fog
advisory remains in effect till 9 AM Friday in anticipation of
early daytime heating lifting the fog. On a side note regarding
the fog, could have very picturesque photos of hoarfrost across
the valley.
Our next weather producing system is moving across the NV-UT line
eastward bringing in another round of precipitation coupled with
some strong, gusty winds. This combination of strong winds and
snow across the western portion of the forecast area was
justification enough to issue Winter Weather Advisories. Main
concern will be for snow and blowing snow that will likely cause
issues across portions of Interstate 80 and 25. Further details
can be found in the applicable weather headline product. Continued
potential for blowing snow and 1-3 inches of accumulating snow
across Dawes and Box Butte kept the need to continue these
headlines as well. While the overall QPF and snow totals are
lacking somewhat, the impacts though remain concerning enough to
keep headlines in place.
The GFS and the NAM are picking up on strong mid-level vorticity
and omega gradients especially across the southern Laramie Range
into the high plains bordering CO. Strongest wind gusts above 50
kts still contained mainly to the Interstate 80 Summit to Buford.
Lapse rates and gradients diminish some but potential remains for
strong downsloping flow making it out towards KCYS. Kept the High
Wind Watch to allot for another model cycle to ensure trends
remain and the gradients will suffice for high winds. GFS model
solutions showing increased chance for strong winds across the
southwestern NE Panhandle that will need to be watched as lapse
rates and subsidence do not stay at the level long enough Saturday
afternoon that we normally like to see.
With temperatures around seasonal norms, model soundings are
picking up on some low level instability across the western
forecast area today with the potential for some convective
elements. Not out of the question for folks across Carbon County
to have thundersnow today.
.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Thursday)
Issued at 322 AM MST Fri Mar 8 2019
Mid-level ridging and vorticity advection will keep snow falling
across the southern portion of Carbon County with higher totals
over the mountain ranges on Sunday. Dry air will advect in,
capping off precipitation chances Sunday evening.
The extended forecast period now turns into the world of
uncertainty as our next major weather pattern of a CO Low takes
shape for Tuesday through Thursday. Model difference and flip-
flopping of low pressure center and location of cyclogenesis are
changing back and forth with each model run for the GFS and EURO.
Ensembles are spaced out as well making even the best pass of a
forecast difficult at this point. If the location of deep
cyclogenesis lies closer to us as it comes off the Rockies, we
could expect deep trowal action of strong almost blizzard-like
winds and snow, as the EURO is hinting at though it moves out into
the plains far faster than be ideal for the worst conditions to
occur. If the CO low takes more of the pattern by the GFS, some
snow would be likely but not the strong, persistent winds over
our forecast area but rather central NE. Differences in storm
accumulation precipitation around half an inch to over an inch
QPF. Continued tracking of forecast especially as onshore
measurements become available will be critical in determining
cyclogenesis location and intensity off the Rockies and impacts
for the region.
After the passing of the CO low, temperatures turn seasonably cool
for Wednesday through the end of the week with daytime highs in
the mid 20s to low 30s.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through tonight)
Active weather over the next 24 hours with snow, dense fog, and
even thundershowers and strong winds expected.
For the Nebraska terminals, LIFR conditions will continue at KBFF
and KAIA due to dense fog with BR at the other terminals early.
Fog will slowly lift this morning with VIS returning to 5+ miles
by noon today. Any VFR or MVFR CIGS will be short-lived this
afternoon as CIGS will lower with snow developing from north to
south into this evening. Most NE terminals will return to IFR or
near IFR between 00z to 04z this evening.
For southeast Wyoming, VFR conditions this morning will gradually
deteriorate as snow/rain and even a few thunder showers develop
through the afternoon hours. Will keep the mention of VCTS out of
the area TAFs for now due to limited coverage, but may see a few
lightning strikes across the area as a potent upper level trough
moves across the region today. Snow is expected to develop at KRWL
shortly, with activity developing further east towards KCYS by
early this afternoon. Persistent IFR conditions should hold off
until sometime this evening, between 22z today and 03z Saturday.
Strong westerly winds will develop behind the trough as it exits
to the east, with gusts around 40 knots possible after 09z
Saturday morning.
