Although temperatures remained in the 20s today, the snow melted on area roadways. The water will refreeze on those roads towards sunset and into the evening.

Black ice road conditions are expected throughout the western and central areas of Wyoming. If the road either looks shiny or wet, the road could be very slippery with black ice.
