I can't even begin to imagine how bad the I-5 is going to be this evening. As has been stated, it was bad enough with the racetrack traffic but with all the rerouting from the 15, might be a good time for commuters to just get a room and not even attempt the drive.
I'm wondering how long the clean up might take? We're supposed to leave tomorrow morning to head up to Northridge to get ready for my son's wedding. We may have to look for "creative" routes.
Hopefully enough info will come out by later tonight about the status that you'll be able to plan... If they can't get it open before tomorrow morning it's REALLY going to create even more havoc...I can't imagine what that would cause. Thankfully it was late enough that at least SOME folks had already gotten through...had this happened two hours earlier when the earlier shifts of commuters hadn't even gotten through...yikes... On the other hand, all those that GOT through may now be stuck.
Wow.....................
Hopefully you don't have to get too creative on your routes up for the wedding, Kyla!
