Wyoming DOT warns of multi-day closure of main interstates on account of storm
The Wyoming Division of Transportation (DOT) is asking drivers to “please change journey plans” as a extreme winter storm is anticipated to stymie journey for days.
On Tuesday night, WYDOT issued an alert for drivers who’re “coming in direction of Wyoming, ready to go west from Cheyenne or Laramie on I-80, or ready to go east on I-80 from Rock Springs.”
WYDOT says that I-90 and I-25 in addition to secondary roads will seemingly be closed into Thursday on account of average to heavy snow, blowing winds, and dangerously chilly temperatures.
Moreover, the company expects that I-80 and secondary roads will probably be closed by way of Friday for snowfall as much as two ft, 45 to 65 m.p.h. winds, blizzard situations, and dangerously chilly temperatures.
