Apparently a tanker just crashed somewhere near Rt. 100 and 95 is shut down

Unless you like being parked on the way home

, I would avoid it at all costs. Just a warning.
btw, this is in MD for all you Virginians

You should be alright. If by chance I-95 is really blocked that far south, you can take 198 from Laurel to 32.

Re: (mhskateboarder)

I work in Columbia off of Snowden River Parkway, and a guy in my office was outside when it happened and said he could see the fire from here. That's like 6 miles away. I have to drive to White Marsh, so I'll be staying at work for a while rather than sit in traffic for what will probably be 2 hours.

Re: (fbox)

A friend of a friend works about 1.5-2 miles from there, he said the walls shook in his building.
Only 2 known deaths so far, hopefully there wont be more, atleast it wasn't during rush hour traffic.
