Truckers deadheading through southeast Wyoming tomorrow and Wednesday may have to pull aside to save their rides, as 65 mph wind gusts are expected to blast the area.
Interstate 80 has reopened, but the 124-mile stretch between Walcott Junction and Cheyenne remains closed to light and high-profile vehicles due to gusting winds.
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.
A driver was killed and his passenger injured after the car they were traveling in went off Interstate 25 and collided head-on with a tree, the Wyoming Highway Patrol says.
