Moving again on I-90
MADISON, Wis. (AP) - Traffic is moving again on the interstate in Dane and Rock counties.
As many as 800 vehicles were stranded overnight when a powerful winter storm delivered whiteout conditions and heavy snowfall.
National Guard troops on snowmobiles and all-terrain vehicles checked on the stranded motorists through the night and delivered fuel, food, water and blankets.
Lieutenant Colonel Tim Donovan said today only minor medical conditions were reported.
Donovan went up in a National Guard helicopter this morning to get an aerial view of the situation.
The backup started when some semitrailer trucks lost traction and got stuck on a small hill. That caused a backup that stretched 19 miles.
