A strong low pressure system impacted the central Rockies with periods of moderate to heavy snowfall and gusty east to northeast winds of 30 to 40 mph.  The combination of falling and blowing snow created poor visibilities and snow-packed roadways.  Interstates 25 and 80 in southeast Wyoming were closed due to winter driving conditions. Snow totals ranged from half a foot to three feet, heaviest over the mountains.
