Cheyenne at a glance
Heating and cooling climate
NOAA's 1991–2020 climate normals for the CHEYENNE WFO, WY station show about 7,028 heating degree days and 342 cooling degree days in a typical year, with about 169 nights at or below freezing and 12 days reaching 90°F or more. Heating demand is far larger than cooling demand here, so the furnace, boiler or heat pump carries most of the load and a breakdown in a cold snap is the most pressing kind of call.
