Default Freeway madness I-90 near Elk Heights, snow blowing over road, cars everywhere...

freeway was clear and dry until this section near Elk Heights where the wind was blowing the snow onto the road, all these pics were taken within a one mile stretch. The first three pics are before i got on I-90. Also just after the semi-truck on it's side there was a suby that flipped into the median, couldn't get the camera ready in time Everyone seemed ok. The snow does provide soft(er) landings.

Looks like you were driving east-bound on I-90 near Ellensburg.

It shouldn't be that bad unless it's REALLY windy again

Default I-90 by the rest area at Indian John Hill can be one of the worst areas for icy roads.

Thanks for sharing your pictures.
