Snow keeps eastbound I-80 closed in Wyoming

Eastbound Interstate 80 remains closed because of slick conditions and blowing snow between Rock Springs and Laramie. Interstate 25 south of Cheyenne was back open Thursday but the Wyoming Department of Transportation warns drivers to be careful because of black ice. The spring storm that brought waves of snow over the last three days has now moved out of the state. Sgt. Stephen Townsend of the Wyoming Highway Patrol said there were numerous accidents Wednesday and a report of 1 fatality in the Laramie area. No details have been released yet.
