Cheyenne National Weather Service

Travel conditions along Interstates 80 and 25 will be impacted.

The weather service says the mountain areas can expect ''blowing snow and reduced visibilities at times with gusts 35 to 45 mph possible."

Strong winds and mountain snow showers are expected.

Cold temperatures will also be prevalent.

Sustained winds of 35-45 MPH with gusts to 65 MPH are expected for the period.

This will create hazardous conditions for snowmobilers, hunters, skiers, or anyone doing recreation in the mountains.

Use caution if traveling, especially if driving light/high profile vehicles or towing a trailer.

The Cheyenne Office of the National Weather Service is warning people to ''AVOID TRAVEL if possible tonight and tomorrow! ''

People are being urged to reconsider travel plans in some areas between Friday evening and late Saturday.

Wind speeds of up to 40 miles per hour are expected in some areas as well, creating near-blizzard conditions.

A winter storm is possible by the middle of next week, but forecasters say its too early to tell.

Roads could remain icy into Thursday morning.
