Mountain passes impacted by winter weather causing intermittent closures
Travel is treacherous over Washington mountain passes with Snoqualmie, Stevens and White all closing intermittently. Check the latest conditions here.
www.fox13seattle.comI don’t have live tools available right now to pull the latest status. Here’s the most recent public-context pattern for Snoqualmie Pass closures you can check quickly:
-
Snoqualmie Pass (I-90) closures are typically due to heavy snow, avalanches, or spinouts, and openings are announced by WSDOT with estimated reopen times. If conditions remain severe, closures can persist overnight or through the next day. For travelers, WSDOT’s traveler information line and the I-90 corridor closures page are the primary sources for current status and detours. [Cite: general transit status practices]
-
Local Seattle-area news outlets (e.g., KOMO, KIRO 7, FOX 13 Seattle) often publish real-time updates and live traffic maps when closures occur, including any detour routes via North Bend or Ellensburg. Check their live feeds for the latest on I-90 at Snoqualmie Pass. [Cite: typical local-news reporting on pass closures]
-
You can also monitor live road conditions on WSDOT’s official pages or apps, which post current closures, chain requirements, and weather advisories for Snoqualmie and other passes. They provide the most authoritative reopen estimates once crews complete plowing and clearing. [Cite: official agency guidance]
