As of 11:45 a.m., portions of Interstate 80, from Elk Mountain to Cheyenne, and Interstate 25, from Cheyenne to Wheatland, are closed both directions to light, high profile vehicles due to gusting winds and extreme blow over risk.

The WHP and Wyoming Department of Transportation are asking travelers to please obey the wind closures and #knowbeforeyougo. Check wyoroad.info for the most up-to-date travel information.
