LARAMIE, Wyo. (AP) - A late spring snowstorm closed an interstate highway and sent tree limbs crashing onto power lines in southeastern Wyoming.
Almost 10,000 Rocky Mountain Power customers in the Laramie area were without power Tuesday morning, KTWO Radio reported.
Interstate 80 between Cheyenne and Laramie reopened late Tuesday morning after closing the night before.
Over 6 inches (15 centimeters) of snow fell in the high country of the Laramie Range and Medicine Bow Mountains. Forecasters expected the snow to melt quickly.
