Elk Mountain can be one of Wyoming's most challenging routes even in good weather. A truck driver showed what it's like to drive over this area at night in the winter.

Casper resident Lori Burns shared an awesome photo to her Facebook page of her backyard.

That portion of Interstate 25 was closed to light, high-profile vehicles Saturday afternoon due to the extreme blow over risk.

Construction manpower is expected to peak at 265 workers in July 2020, but will average 125 workers over the 17-month construction period.

The winter storm warning is in effect from 6 a.m. to midnight Wednesday.

The advisory is in effect until 9 a.m. Sunday.

Crews are on scene and working to repair the downed lines.

On Thursday, WYDOT crews worked to clear snow drifts that were reported to be three to five feet deep, some of them a mile in length.

The westbound lanes from Cheyenne to Rawlins and the eastbound lanes from Evanston to Rock Springs will also remain closed.

Parts of I-80 in southeastern Wyoming will also be impacted.

This last week we had a horrible wind storm that swept the entire state of Wyoming. Halting lighter trucks and trailers to a stop on our interstate and blowing your yard fixtures all across the neighborhood.
