The second spring snowstorm in as many weeks to hit Wyoming hindered travel, schools and state government business on Tuesday. A 100-mile section of Interstate 80 between Cheyenne and Rawlins and I-25 south of Cheyenne are closed. No travel was advised on I-25 in the Casper area. Many other highways are slick with limited visibility. All but the northwest corner of the state is under a winter storm warning or advisory. The storm forced some colleges and schools to close early Tuesday and some state government meetings were canceled. The snow started Monday and is expected to linger in central and southern Wyoming into Wednesday. More than 2 feet is expected in some mountain areas from the storm with around a foot possible in the Casper, Lander and Cheyenne areas.
