The mother of all traffic jams!

This week's storm caused a 50 mile long traffic jam along I-78 in Eastern Pennsylvania, with some motorists stranded for as long as twenty-four hours. National Guard vehicles delivered food, baby supplies and fuel to the vehicles trapped in the back up, which was caused when the traffic was unable to climb a hill near New Smithville, PA. It appears to have taken the State Police nearly twenty-four hours after the highway became blocked to close all the entrance ramps to I-78.

A good day to stay at home! Sounds like that's what the State Police were doing. Driving the other way doesn't look so bad, though.
