I-80 nebraska storm

Road & Travel Information

 

Wyoming closed also,saying most highways will be closed 14-16 hours ,at 5:30 pm

 

Where in Kansas is it bad? I feel like I’m missing out on something lol. I’m in central Kansas close to Hutchinson and all we got was a bunch of rain.

 

Everything bad is north of you at the moment.Kansas highways mostly green on the weather map.

 

Blizzard-like conditions there. That looks like a day off if I were traveling in those states. The locals make me chuckle. The meteorologist was forecasting this storm from last week on accuweather.com and they still get caught in it.

 

I80 is still closed from utah line to north platte ne…

 

Looks like Steve and his 359 are making a pile of cash dragging plastic underpowered junk out of some snow. Good for him.

 

So here's the update, you can't there from here:
Earlier today Wyoming opened I 25 from Colo. state line to Casper, then about 4 pm they closed it from Cheyenne to Wheatland due to adverse conditions, blowing, drifting and strong winds. Estimated reopen is now noon time on later on Thursday.
I-80 is closed from Wyo. state line to N. Platte in Nebraska, estimated reopen is Thursday mid-day. As a result, I 76 in Colorado is still closed, even though the road is mostly dry. Basically draw a straight line N/S through N. Platte and everything west of there is closed/impassable due to 3 to 5 drifts, blowing snow, Scottsbluff may have gotten up to 2' of snow.
Wyoming opened I 80 from Utah to Cheyenne, but are now reclosing it in some area due to adverse conditions.
I 90 in Wyoming is open sporadically, but then it will close due to a crash.

Oh, and once this storm moves out on Thursday afternoon, next week is going to be very ugly temperature wise, artic front moves in from Canada as far south as the Denver area, the weather monkeys are saying the high in Denver on the Thursday the 20th may be -2. Parts of Montana will be subzero for the highs beginning this next Monday and for all the week.

 

I 80 is open to exit 102 from Grand Island and traffic is moving to Interstate 76 towards Denver.
