WYDOT says motorists need to be ready for some possible delays as the work continues.

Flooding has also caused damage and displaced families in communities such as Sheridan.

Both highways were closed as of 10:55 a.m. with no estimated reopening time.

Many roads and highways are reporting black ice, slick conditions and/or blowing snow.

The travel impacts are being caused by a powerful winter storm which is expected to continue to dump snow on the region through Wednesday.

A winter weather advisory is in effect for some areas until noon on Thursday.

Interstate 80 is reporting rain and fog between Happy Jack Road and the Nebraska state line.

The restrictions have been imposed in response to a spring snowstorm which has created inclement travel conditions across southeast Wyoming.

The worst of the winter storm has shifted to the east, but travel conditions are still not good.

Don Day says the travel impacts from the strong spring storm will be felt across Wyoming.
