And many other states have had deaths, and power outages, as well that they are still recovering from.
Here is more information about the storm according to the Weather Channel.

Violinist and dancer extraordinaire, Lindsey Stirling, is heading out on tour for Duality Untamed Summer Tour 2026 with special guest PVRIS and one of her tour stops is at the Ford Wyoming Center in Casper, Wyoming on Aug. 7.
Tickets for the tour will be available for presale beginning Tuesday, Jan. 27; with public onsale starting Friday, Jan. 30 at 10 a.m. MST. Please visit www.lindseystirling.com/tour for more information on tickets and VIP sales.
Information from a press release from the Ford Wyoming Center.
“Lindsey Stirling is an artist who stylishly blends sonics with visuals. From her arresting mixture of pop, classical, and electronica, to her meticulous attention to impactful, thematic albums and videos. Artistically, she defies categorization. You can easily find her studio efforts at the top of Billboard’s Top Dance Electronic Album chart, Classical Albums chart, and the all-genre Billboard 200 list. She is the rare artist, especially in the new millennium, to have amassed instrumental AC radio hits.
The tour is named after Stirling’s most recent studio album, Duality, another experimental opus that embraces Stirling’s indie music spirit, and features guests such as Royal & the Serpent and Walk Off the Earth. Stirling makes brilliant use of Duality’s extravagant soundscape by exploring intricate questions of intuition and truth. “Eye Of The Untold Her” was used in Suni Lee’s gold & bronze medal winning floor routines during the Paris summer Olympics.
Stirling stays on the pulse of social media as well, amassing 14.3+ million subscribers and over three billion views on YouTube. She also has over 5.2M followers on Tik Tok, and 4.2M+ on Instagram. It’s no wonder that Forbes placed her at #4 on its 2015 World’s Top-Earning YouTube Stars list. In a career spanning more than a decade, Stirling has sold more than 1 million headlining concert tickets.
About PRVIS
Hailing from Boston, MA, PVRIS – the creative project of vocalist/instrumentalist/songwriter, Lyndsey Gunnulfsen (aka Lynn Gunn) – focuses on artistry, emotional resonance, and story-telling in her music. Rather than be tied down to a specific genre, PVRIS has always explored a diverse, eclectic mix of sounds, resulting in a genre all their own.
PVRIS took the unconventional approach of disengaging completely from the public eye to write/record their new album, EVERGREEN. Weary of seeing how modern culture has become so dependent on the internet, social media, instant gratification, and the ever-present “algorithm,” Gunnulfsen embarked on a journey of reflection, meditation, and self-discovery. The result is a body of work that feels timeless.
Friday August 7 – Casper, WY – Ford Wyoming Center “
