We can look forward to a few inches of snow and extreme cold this weekend. So, bundle up, get the bread and milk, and plan on staying inside as much as possible.

The agency says we "could see 20 to 40 below zero wind chill temperatures by Sunday and Monday morning!''

While wind chill affects people and animals, experts say it does not affect automobiles or other inanimate objects.

Very cold weather across the region is expected to continue, with Cheyenne possibly seeing double-digit lows by this weekend.

The forecast says we can expect ''brutally cold Friday and Saturday with high temperatures struggling to get above 0F across our eastern areas.''

Up to a foot of mountain snow combined with winds gusting as high as 50 mph could make for dangerous travel along portions of I-80 in southeast Wyoming tonight.

The weather service is warning about a variety of hazards across the region, ranging from wind chill advisories to winter weather advisories.

As of 10:15, I-80 was closed ti light, high profile vehicles between Laramie and Walcott Junction.

With all of the winter weather warnings, advisories, snow, ice and freezing temperatures, it can sure make driving in Wyoming a challenge.

Not only is it the right thing to do, but it is also illegal in Wyoming to leave pets out in the cold.
