The Washington State Department of Transportation has announced updates on highway closures across the state due to storm damage, including US 2 between Skykomish and Leavenworth, I-90 over Snoqualmie Pass, SR 20 near Winthrop, and SR 9 in Snohomish, with repairs underway or planned but no specific reopening dates provided.
A water main break on Floating Feather in Eagle, Idaho, has been repaired by Veolia Water, but the resulting road damage will take longer to fix. The break caused a 16-inch PVC transmission main to split, leading to a road cave-in. While no customers lost water service, road repairs will necessitate closures and detours in the area, particularly affecting Floating Feather between N Downing Drive and N Grey Pebble Way. The road is expected to remain closed for several days as repairs continue.
Several ski resorts in Maine and New Hampshire have announced closures on Tuesday as they recover from a powerful storm that brought heavy rain and strong winds. The resorts are assessing and repairing roads, equipment, and terrain that were affected by the storm. Some areas experienced significant flooding, with roads collapsing and culverts being washed away. Ski operations will resume once necessary repairs are made.
Southbound lanes of the 5 Freeway at the Grapevine will be closed Sunday night through early Monday morning for Caltrans to make repairs to the roadway, which was also closed on Saturday night. The closure is due to recent storm damage, and crews will be drilling through the pavement and lowering steel beams down 50 ft. to bedrock to protect I-5 against further landslide damage. Northbound lanes will remain open, and a detour map has been provided for southbound travelers.
