Snoqualmie Pass reopens after multiple crashes
Snoqualmie Pass has reopened after several different crashes closed both East and Westbound lanes Thursday, according to the Washington State Department of Transportation.
At about 3:46 p.m., WSDOT sent an alert they were closing eastbound Interstate 90 to traffic due to the snow and slush.
UPDATE: We are now closed WB at MP 71 near Easton. We are also still closed EB at MP 47 just west of the summit. No estimate for a reopening at this time.
