Just for comparison, the National Weather Service defines winds of 74 miles per hour as "hurricane force."

Wind gusts of 80 miles per hour are possible in some areas, and winds of 60-70 will be a common occurrence.

The Cheyenne Office of the National Weather Service says severe thunderstorms are possible in southeast Wyoming today [Sept. 12] and tomorrow.

Tennis-ball size hail and winds of up to 65 MPH are the main hazards expected with these storms.
