travel conditions

Southeast Wyoming and the Nebraska Panhandle could get snow today, with brief periods of heavy snow possible at times in some areas.

Another round of high winds will be possible along the I-25 corridor late this afternoon through Monday morning.

WYDOT says that I-80 is closed in both directions between Rawlins and Laramie.

Southeast Wyoming has been rocked by a winter storm that has plunged temperatures well into the sub-zero range and created poor travel conditions.

Brutally cold temperatures are also expected over the next couple of days, with sub-zero temperatures and wind chills down to -25.

Brutally cold weather is forecast over the next few days.

Casper and Lusk could get a foot of the white stuff, according to the projections. Cheyenne and Laramie will get less snow but are facing brutally cold temps.

We will begin to see a prolonged period of moderate to heavy snowfall for the Snowy and Sierra Madres Ranges where 1 to 2 feet of snow accumulation will be possible.

Laramie County Public Works crews are focused on keeping the roads open and will not be able to assist if you are stuck on the side of the road.

We'll have patchy fog in low-lying areas, and mostly cloudy conditions for most of the remaining forecast area today.

Visibilities down to one-half mile have been observed around Arlington and between Laramie and Cheyenne.

Snowfall totals remain uncertain for areas between Cheyenne and Alliance, so the Winter Storm Watch remains in effect with additional updates expected later today.
