Next Round of Snowfall Begins Tonight

Below Normal Temperatures on Tuesday

21/420AM: A High Wind Warnings has been issued for the Arlington area on Interstate 80 between Laramie and Rawlins this morning through 3PM this afternoon. Arlington has already seen wind gusts to 57 mph and will likely see 60 mph later this morning. High Wind Watches remain in effect for Bordeaux and East Platte County through 3PM as well. If encountering strong winds, slow down and keep a firm grip on your steering wheel to avoid a blow off or blow over.

21/345AM: Greetings! More snow is on the way for southeast Wyoming as a second low pressure system moves into the area. Winter Storm Warnings have been posted for the Snowy and Sierra Madre Range where 12-24 inches of additional snowfall is expected to fall. Snow spread into northern Carbon County near Muddy Gap and into the North Laramie Range where Winter Weather Advisories have been posted. An additional hazard with this next round of snow will be strong wind gusts as high as 50-60 mph that could produce areas of blowing snow. Hikers and snowmobilers could easily become disoriented and/or lost from the very poor visibility expected. Be careful out there tonight through Thursday morning.

20/845PM: Greetings! Below normal temperatures are forecast across southeast Wyoming and Nebraska Panhandle! Forecast for today calls for increasing chances for snow west of the Laramie Range, especially in our mountain zones. For the Nebraska Panhandle, look for mostly dry conditions today, as lingering early morning snow showers dissipate. Expect breezy conditions as well with gusts 25-35mph in the lower terrain.
