Pass Problems Cause Closures
SEATTLE (AP) - Avalanche danger and snowslides have interrupted
traffic across two major Washington Cascades mountain passes. State Transportation Department officials closed Stevens Pass last night due to multiple snowslides. No vehicles were caught in those
slides. Officials say they expect U.S. Highway 2 over Stevens Pass
to reopen today. Earlier, Interstate 90 traffic over Snoqualmie
(snoh-KWALM'-ee) Pass starting moving again about noon after an
11-hour closure for avalanche danger.
