I-90 re-opened around 7 pm Monday after being closed for several hours after a large motorhome fire in Seattle’s Mt. Baker Tunnel.

The fire started when a car and a motorhome crashed, according to the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT). The Washington State Patrol (WSP) said there were no injuries.

Footage from cameras inside the tunnel showed massive flames and thick smoke filling the overhead space.
