Storm closes Wyo. highways., delays Denver flights

Storm closes Wyo. highways., delays Denver flights DENVER (AP) — A storm that toppled trees, whipped up blinding dust storms and may have spawned some tornadoes closed highways in Wyoming Tuesday and was slowing flights at Denver International Airport. The storm has canceled 465 flights at Denver International Airport and deicing was causing departing flights to be delayed by as much as a half hour. Whitecaps flecked the Pacific Ocean along the California coast, where gale warnings and small craft advisories were posted. Wind-driven swells slapped over the tops of breakwaters and turned waves into a churning froth under piers at points such as Redondo Beach and Manhattan Beach on the Los Angeles County coast. California's main power grid manager, the Independent System Operator, reported that turbines spinning within the ISO grid produced a record of 4,196 megawatts Sunday. In Arizona, gusty winds produced by a cold front enveloped Phoenix in a dusty haze and closed 34 miles of Interstate 40 in the northern part of the state for several hours Monday.
