Rockslide on I-40

A huge rockslide has I-40 between Asheville and Knoxville blocked both directions. Fortunately, it occurred at 2 am instead of 2pm on this heavily traveled interstate. NCDOT says it may take months (and $10 million or more) to clear the roads. Some of the rocks are the size of a garage!

Luckily, no drivers were involved in the slide, though a few accidents immediately after resulted in some injuries as unaware drivers ran into the rocks covering the road.
