travel conditions

Winter weather was expected for most of Wyoming through the day on Thursday.

The heaviest snowfall was expected between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m on Thursday.

Afternoon and evening rain showers are expected to change to snow overnight.

Snow-packed and icy roads and poor visibility can be expected across most of the region.

Snow is expected to spread into the southeast Wyoming plains starting early Friday and continuing into Saturday.

The blizzard warning is in effect through 6 a.m. Friday.

Travel impacts are likely due to blowing snow, slick roads, and reduced visibility in the areas receiving moderate to heavy snow.

The agency warns that ''these strong crosswinds could result in loss of control of vehicles pulling lighter loads, including camping trailers.''

Visibility as low as 1/8 of a mile is possible.

Hazardous travel is likely due to strong winds and blowing snow, especially near the I-80 Summit and the Arlington/Elk Mountain area.
