A portion of I-94 near Kalamazoo, Michigan, had to be shut down to traffic due to a major pileup amid snowy conditions.
A massive pileup occurred on Interstate 94 on Monday morning just west of Kalamazoo, Michigan, forcing the highway's eastbound lanes to be shut down amid lake-effect snow squalls.
Video from the scene showed snowy conditions with dozens of vehicles, including multiple tractor-trailers, involved in the pileup.
It is unclear at this time if there were any serious injuries or fatalities due to the pileup.
Heavy lake-effect snow was falling in the area most of the day leading up to the accident. At one point, heavy snow limited the visibility in Kalamazoo to just one-quarter of a mile, with wind gusts frequently exceeding 20 mph.
