ORIGINAL STORY:

Winter conditions have once again forced the closure of Interstate 25 and Interstate 80 in southeast Wyoming.

Currently, I-25 is closed between Cheyenne and Wheatland, and I-80 is closed between Cheyenne and Laramie, and there is no estimated time as to when the interstates may reopen.

I-80 between Laramie and Walcott Junction is also closed to light and high-profile vehicles due to gusting winds.

According to the Wyoming Department of Transportation, 50-plus mph winds will create significant blowing and drifting snow, poor visibility, and possible whiteout/ground blizzard conditions this morning through Wednesday evening.

Drivers are encouraged to call 511 or go to wyoroad.info for the latest road conditions and closure information.
