Going Somewhere in Wyoming? Maybe Not

This morning, Wyoming has some road closures and is feeling the effects of a Winter Storm that has dropped about 4 inches of snow on Cheyenne, though that is slightly misleading given the rain factor and temperature variations.  Casper is under a Winter Weather Advisory until 6pm with light snow falling this morning. WYDOT is listing the problems and conditions on Wyoming roads. Here’s the road report as of 7am.
