CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) - Snow is falling in much of Wyoming as the latest snowstorm makes its way through the state.

The heaviest snow is falling in the southern half, where the National Weather Service is predicting up to 10 inches to fall in low elevation areas.

A winter storm warning has been posted for much of the Interstate 80 corridor, including Cheyenne, Rock Springs, Green River and Evanston.



By late Wednesday afternoon, about 6 inches had fallen in the Cheyenne and Wheatland areas and 8 inches near Rawlins.

The interstate was open but a crash closed a stretch of westbound lanes between Cheyenne and Laramie on Wednesday evening.

In addition to the snow, bitter cold air is flowing into the state with below zero temperatures expected throughout the state Wednesday and Thursday nights.
