Kristy Tallman+Follow😉‼️Mother Nature’s got jokes today. I-25 and I-80 are still closed to light high-profile vehicles as those wicked Wyoming winds keep tryin’ to knock folks sideways. Troopers responded to multiple blow-overs in the same spot today — mile marker 279 on I-80 in Carbon County, about seven miles from Arlington. No serious injuries so far, but it’s rough out there.
