Wyoming Weather 3/6 Morning - Winter Storm Warning

Good morning. Wyoming. I'm Aaron Jolly. That snow you woke up to? Over an inch fell overnight. And it's still coming down across parts of the state. Currently sitting at 30 degrees with winter making it clear it's not finished with us yet. Southeast Wyoming is taking the brunt of it. Snow showers and blowing snow continue through early afternoon, with the heaviest bands running along I-25 from Cheyenne to Wheatland. Here comes 3 to 5 inches total by tonight. North winds gusting to 45 miles an hour are creating whiteout conditions at times — if you're driving that stretch, slow down and give yourself extra space. High near 31, but temperatures drop through the afternoon. Tonight clears out with lows around 16 degrees. Central Wyoming sees lighter action. Snow showers taper off by mid-afternoon with less than half an inch of accumulation. High near 39 degrees. Partly cloudy tonight with lows dropping to 23.
