National Weather Service

The winter storm watch is in effect from Friday morning through Saturday.

Winds as high as 80 mph are possible in some areas.

As the system moves into southeastern Wyoming this afternoon, snow is expected to increase and be especially heavy tonight.

Travel difficulties are likely because of slick and snow-covered roadways. Keep this in mind as you plan for Thanksgiving travel.

Southeast Wyoming will see above average temperatures Monday and Tuesday before the next shot of cold and snow.

The warning covers both Cheyenne and Laramie, and travel on Interstate 80 over the summit could be a problem for high-profile vehicles.

We can expect warmer but windy weather on Tuesday.

An inch or two of snow and possibly ice roads can be expected in some areas.
