https://images2.imgbox.com/f4/f1/mZQFrusb_o.jpg A “superfog” of smoke from Louisiana marsh fires and dense fog resulted in a massive car crash Monday morning involving 168 vehicles, around 9 a.m. Monday along a one-mile stretch of the elevated interstate. School buses were summoned to transport stranded motorists from the accident sites on the elevated I-55, which passes over swamp and open waters between lakes Pontchartrain and Maurepas. |

Barnes Wallis. An English engineer and inventor. He invented the 5 ton Bouncing Bomb used in the Dam Busters Raid, the 12,000 Tallboy Bomb used to sink the German battleship Tirpitz and the 10 ton deep penetration Earthquake Bomb, used on strategic German targets such as V-2 rocket launch sites, the V-3 supergun bunker, submarine pens and other reinforced structures. |

I'm told there were three: one red, one white, and one silver. They were trying to determine if the window should be painted, or a sticker. Ours was painted. Anecdotally - this is the car George Hurst saw and based his Hurst Olds paint scheme on. K |

Those crash pictures are horrific !! A miracle only 8 perished. Most must have been able to get out of their vehicles before the fire spread and consumed the whole lot.
There was a fiery crash near Hudson, WI Monday evening as well. A semi driver failed to see stopped traffic in a construction zone and plowed into the line at freeway speed. That driver, and the driver of the pickup he hit died at the scene. Both of those vehicles and the semi the pickup was crushed into all caught fire and burned along with more cars ahead of the second semi. |
