In a sign that the Cowboy State is in the middle of winter, the Wyoming Department of Transportation has ordered the closure of some highways while issuing advisories for others.

Health officials or suppliers needing assistance transporting COVID-19 related materials or supplies on a closed road are asked to contact Wyoming Highway Patrol Dispatch at 307-777-4321.

Interstate 80 was closed between Cheyenne and Laramie as of 7:14 a.m. due to a fire, according to the Wyoming Department of Transportation.
