Here’s what KOIN reported:
More than 100 cars, trucks and semi-trucks were involved in a crash on Interstate 84 early Thursday afternoon, according to the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office.
Officials with the Oregon Department of Transportation reported that I-84 westbound is closed from Hood River at Milepost 64 to four miles west of Multnomah Falls at Milepost 27.
“Road conditions on I-84 in the affected areas are considered slick, but passable,” ODOT said. “This series of crashes was caused by a combination of high winds blowing snow and drivers traveling too fast for the winter weather conditions in the area.”
