Today In Wyoming's History: October 29, 1917

Today In Wyoming's History: October 29:

1917  Record cold struck the West with Soda Butte Wyoming's temperature falling to to -33° F a U.S. record for October.  Lander's temperature fell to-14° F and Cheyenne's to 2° F.


The coming cold snap was noted by the Laramie Boomerang, which also featured war news that day and a rather dramatic cartoon about the Germans in Russia.
