I-90 over Snoqualmie Pass back open in both directions
Westbound I-90 over Snoqualmie Pass reopened Thursday morning, roughly 12 hours after crews reopened eastbound lanes.
The pass closed Monday afternoon following a snowstorm that led to accumulations of more than 4 feet.
With 31.5 inches of snowfall Tuesday, Snoqualmie Pass also set a new daily snowfall record. The previous record was 30.7 inches, which was set February 20, 1975.
On Tuesday afternoon, the Washington State Patrol and Washington Department of Transportation led a convoy of semi trucks and other vehicles off the pass. To avoid avalanche danger, the vehicles were escorted to North Bend in the eastbound lanes.
Truck driver Steven Sutton spent Monday night on the pass in his truck.
Doing the best I can. Got heat, go stuff to do. Got a phone. If I didnt have a phone charger, Id be a lot of trouble, said Sutton.
Sutton told KING 5 Tuesday afternoon he had been stuck on the pass for more than 30 hours.
