    From what I am hearing (I am fairly local) from the local news, 70 will be shut down for a while. We just had the same kind of incident a week or so ago on I-81, but in that one, no one was hurt. From the news the wreckage looks awful. There was supposedly 30 plus cars and 5 to 7 tractor trailers.

    IROC,

    I'm glad to hear your husband is ok! It sounds like he fared better than others in this mess.

    I was on 70 east, the roads wasn't even plowed such a shame. It was a 50 car pile up, included 7 semi's 2 people killed. It was because somebody slowed down an nobody belives in safe distance anymore. Supose to reopen at 9
