Most roads in southeast Wyoming will likely remain closed through the day, according to the Wyoming Department of Transportation.
Due to winter conditions, Interstate 25 between the Colorado state line and Buffalo and Interstate 80 between Rawlins and the Nebraska state line remain closed. There is also a rolling closure in place on I-80 eastbound between the Utah state line and Rawlins.
