(Worthy News) – The snowstorm that dropped roughly a foot of snow on the Mid-Atlantic region has resulted in a massive traffic backup Tuesday on Interstate-95 in northern Virginia that stranded motorists overnight in freezing temperatures in a reported 48-mile backup.
The backup in the state’s Stafford County is the result of multiple truck crashed on snowy and icy roads and as of Tuesday morning was about 15-hours long, according to NBC’s WRC-TV.
The fast-moving storm arrived in the region early Monday morning and continued into the afternoon. [ Source: Just the News (Read More…) ]
