    I have a load delivering to Denver on Friday 12th or Saturday morning picked up 2 days late so will do best to keep close to original delivery time. This is my first winter out here so wish me luck and skill.

    Around 2 inches on the ground in Cheyenne and still coming down.

    Numerous black ice advisories around the area.

    I am based out of south denver,and there was a light dusting on wednesday night--nothing more too speak of,but if you are headed into the high-country...you should have your chains ready.

    I hit some snow and icy patches coming out of Cheyenne and into Laramie Wednesday night. Have not heard how it's going over that way now though. It's cold but clear in Seattle

    It was an odd storm.


    Within the city limits of cheyenne the snow varied A LOT. All the way from 1/2 inch to 3 inches. Cheyenne is not like big cities like Denver, chicago, hooooston etc. Because of the elevation I've seen multiple inches variations in 10 miles but not like this in just a couple miles.

    Yeah it was. What amazed me is it hit the line to Laramie and then dry...the further west you got the drier it was all the way to SLC
