travel conditions

Up to 12 inches of snow is possible above 7500 feet, but some snow accumulations may be seen above 5,000 feet.

Winter weather advisories have been posted for some areas starting this evening.

Several inches of snow are possible at higher elevations, including the I-80 summit.

Some lingering travel impacts are expected well into the day on Wednesday.

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

Forecasters expect a lull in the storm today before another wave of winter weather this evening.

Most of southeast Wyoming was expected to remain under a winter storm warning through noon on Wednesday.

The exact details on the crash which closed the highway were not immediately known.

High temperatures may hit the mid-70s Friday and Saturday.

The forecast for the next few days includes everything from mountain snow showers to thunderstorms to warm, summer-like weather.
