light and high-profile vehicles

Southeast Wyoming is no stranger to the wind, but today and Wednesday are going to blow, literally.

Truckers deadheading through southeast Wyoming tomorrow and Wednesday may have to pull aside to save their rides, as 65 mph wind gusts are expected to blast the area.

Wind gusts of up to 65 mph combined with the snow on the ground from this week's storm are making for hazardous conditions on Interstate 80 between Laramie and Rawlins.

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

Strong winds will impact much of southeast Wyoming today before a cold front moves through Wednesday, bringing widespread snow to the area.

While it's not uncommon for those traveling in Wyoming to see wind-related closures and advisories, the highway patrol says drivers shouldn't blow them off.

A High Wind Warning remains in effect until 2 p.m. this afternoon for Arlington and Elk Mountain along Interstate 80.

Travel along Interstate 25 south of Wheatland could be difficult Wednesday morning, especially for light and high-profile vehicles.
