Traffic is stopped at the 46 mile marker right now. This info is from Team Foxco at 1:23pm.

....and apparently a real mess between there and Terre Haute.
It also appears they've set up a detour onto Rt. 40 westbound all the way to Terre Haute, then from Martinsville, Illinois to Casey Illinois, for those heading to Little Belleville.

That will probably result in disaster when they get to Brazil. One lane most of the way thru town. Cops go on break. Probably standing water halfway across US40. Good luck.

Sounds like 65 is shut down as well Diana (my wife) just called and she was heading to Nashville and they are being turned around across the medium around mile marker 85-90.

Also heard from a couple of teams who went 65 and have been turned around as well.

Be careful. The local station said much of Spencer is under water and many Owen County roads are closed. Spencer had 10.5 inches of rain since last night.
