High Wind Watch

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

Snow combined with winds gusting as high as 60 mph will make travel very difficult to impossible across parts of southeast Wyoming tonight, the National Weather Service in Cheyenne says.

According to the National Weather Service in Cheyenne, more than a dozen sites recorded wind gusts in excess of 65 mph last night and this morning.

Strong winds are expected to return tonight, which means even if crews are able to get Interstate 80 back open this evening, it may be short-lived.

Southeast Wyoming is expected to see much warmer temperatures by this afternoon, but, unfortunately, the wind won't be leaving with the cold.

A windy Valentine's Day is in store for portions of southeast Wyoming and the Nebraska Panhandle, the National Weather Service in Cheyenne says.

High Wind Watches are in effect from late tonight through Wednesday evening.

I-25 in southeast Wyoming has reopened after being closed Tuesday morning due to winter conditions.
