          Crews are working to remove stopped trucks, plow snow, de-ice the roadway and guide the hundreds of motorists stranded on I-95 to the nearest exits, Virginia officials say. Gov. Ralph Northam couldn’t say when the situation would be resolved.http://apne.ws/Wa6ThVm

          Meera Rao was stuck for nearly 16 hours just 100 feet past an exit on I-95 in Virginia, after snarled traffic and heavy snow combined to strand hundreds of motorists. She and her husband turned off their car's engine frequently to save gas. ​http://apne.ws/3sL4IjU

          The one thing you can always count on in the replies to terrible events unfolding in real time is reply guys assuring everyone this only happened because 1) people were unprepared, 2) they'd survive it so much better, and 3) the emergency is actually no big deal. 🙄

          This is why you need to have at least a half a tank of gas at all times during the winter.

          This is horrible but I remember when I lived in the DC area and the city closed for 2 days because of 6 inches of snow. They couldn't handle it. Where I grew up, if it was under 3 feet, it was nothing. We were professionals though.
