Blowing Snow

Truckers traveling through southeast Wyoming tomorrow morning may want to avoid the interstates and opt for truck stops.

Snow combined with winds gusting as high as 60 mph will make travel very difficult to impossible across parts of southeast Wyoming tonight, the National Weather Service in Cheyenne says.

Heavy mountain snow combined with wind gusts as high as 60 mph could make travel "very difficult" in southeast Wyoming Friday and Saturday, the National Weather Service in Cheyenne says.

Winter conditions have once again forced the closure of Interstate 80 between Rawlins and Laramie in southeast Wyoming.

The Wyoming Highway Patrol has identified the person killed in January's massive pileup on Interstate 80.

A driver was killed and another injured in a head-on crash on South Pass late Tuesday morning, the Wyoming Highway Patrol says.

A Winter Storm Warning remains in effect until 5 p.m. Tuesday for the Sierra Madre and Snowy Ranges.

Strong winds are expected to return tonight, which means even if crews are able to get Interstate 80 back open this evening, it may be short-lived.

Lingering travel impacts could last as long as Thursday across many portions of the region and even Friday for portions of I-80 west of Laramie to Rawlins.

Cheyenne could see up to a foot of snow this evening through early Thursday morning, the National Weather Service in Cheyenne says.
