There was up to four inches of ice under some vehicles, she added. Parker said they did not consider closing I prior to the storm. VDOT was prepared, but the snow was more than they anticipated and fell at a harder rate than expected, she said.

He went on Twitter to try to find information and started messaging others in the same situation.
