"Massive Pileup Shuts Down I-70 in Missouri Amid Rare Snowfall and Major Traffic Delays"
TL;DR Summary
A snowy pileup involving several vehicles, including a jack-knifed semitrailer, shut down a portion of Interstate 70 in eastern Missouri as a winter storm moved through the area, causing visibility to drop to a half mile. The westbound section of the road was expected to remain closed for at least two hours, with no immediate word on injuries. The Missouri Department of Transportation attributed the slick roads to an overwhelming of their chemicals and plowing efforts by the storm.
