Three lanes of northbound Interstate 5 were closed Thursday morning for the Washington State Department of Transportation to clear out large icicles from the ceiling of the Convention Center tunnel.

I-90 closed near North Bend after multiple collisions

All lanes were reopened around 10:15 a.m. but WSDOT is still warning drivers that there could be more intermittent closures of northbound lanes until above-freezing temperatures are reached later this week.

Drivers are being advised to slow down and expect delays.
