    Oh my poor kitty....
    We both know that Wyoming don’t need water or clouds to shut down I 80.

    In APRIL 2015 we had that massive multi truck pile up just west of Laramie. I vacationed in Wyoming in August and it snowed! Take I-40. You won't regret it.

    I am! Wtf does all that purple mean? I don’t like that color. I don’t like the way SLC looks there. It’s yellow which looks bad.

    See the chart at the top? Those are the corresponding wind gust speeds. Sustained is much lower. Purple is pretty good. Sustained speed atm I'm Wyoming is like 5.

    You are going to get some snow today in western Wyoming through SLC. Shouldn't be too bad. Be careful out there.

    Being a licensed private pilot I sometimes would use the 800 number and get a weather brief for a selected city IF it was winter and I was concerned about conditions. I have been involved in many whiteout conditions on I 80 going west out of Laramie. My last few years with the advent of the internet and many aviation weather reports online I used charts like the below. This is a summary of an hourly report from a weather reporting station.

    But he grow old
    This knight so bold
    And o'er his heart a shadow
    Fell as he found
    No spot of ground
    That looked like El Dorado

    Over the mountains
    Of the moon
    Down the Valley of the Shadow
    Ride boldly ride
    The shade replied
    To the land of El Dorado
