So Washington State has been getting hammered by snowstorm after snowstorm, especially in the Cascades. We've already broken 20 year snowfall records and it's the first week of January.

As such, we are in the unusual predicament of essentially being cut off from the rest of the US at the moment, as all passes across the Cascades are closed until at least Sunday. Flooding in the south means that I5 is shut down in parts because its underwater.

WSDOT posted this today and I gotta say, this is some spectacular work:

Road Closed signs apply to everyone. This is why. On Thursday evening this semi went through the road closure on White Pass and got stuck. Our crews had to rescue the occupants, take them to safety and then later today guide the truck down behind our blower. Our crews are working really hard to get things open, and things like this don't help. So please, if you see a road closed sign, don't ignore it.

That exit is notoriously short compared to all other exits in the area. Most exits are long, and sweeping and give you lots of time to gradually slow down. Exit 165B is like a quarter mile, with a hard right thrown in there, and immediately into a stoplight. People think they can get off there right away and are usually still doing 40 - 60 by the time they come around the corner.
