CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) - For the third straight week, Wyoming is seeing a spring snowstorm hit the state and more problems for travelers.

Westbound lanes of Interstate 80 from Cheyenne to Laramie were closed Monday morning because of a crash on the snowcovered and slick highway.

In northeast Wyoming, no travel was advised on highways in the Sheridan area, including Interstate 90.

The National Weather Service has posted winter storm warnings and advisories for a large part of the state. Sheridan, Gillette and Sundance could see up to a foot of snow. Up to 5 inches is possible in Casper, while Cheyenne and Riverton could see 4 inches.

The latest storm to hit the state comes in the wake of big snowstorms in each of the past two weeks.
