Snow likely in much of Wyoming on Thursday. Winter storm warnings, winter weather advisories in effect. Highs from the low 30s to mid 40s. Lows mainly in the teens and low 20s.

Today's question to Don Day

Mark James Mullins of Douglas

In regard to your thunderstorm season article, can you reassess the data on a per-capita basis, especially when considering population of the states? It could affect me as I own a hill on my property which I plan a communications tower and likely will have a lightning rod installed when it goes in.

Don Day

FEMA has a good lightning database that takes into account lightning risk, potential property loss, etc. based on population and lightning frequency. Data is available on a county by county basis. Lots and lots of lightning data available here which may help in quest for more lightning information. https://hazards.fema.gov/nri/lightning

Do you have a question for Don Day?
