Hundreds of motorists were stranded in a massive traffic pileup on Thursday, and classes were canceled for thousands of students as the Midwest dug out from a major snowstorm.
Meanwhile, residents in the Great Lakes nervously eyed rising rivers.
In Wisconsin, traffic backed up for 19 miles south of Madison on Wednesday after semitrailer trucks got stuck on a hill. Gov. Jim Doyle later called a state of emergency, sending National Guard troops to help vehicles stuck in the jam blocking Interstate 90. Snowmobiles and all-terrain vehicles were used to check on the stranded motorists and bring them food or fuel.
As many as 800 vehicles remained stranded Thursday morning, according to Wisconsin National Guard Lt. Col. Tim Donovan.
