"Storm-Induced Road Collapse Keeps California's Highway 1 Closed"

California's Highway 1 remains closed after a section of the road collapsed during a major storm, leaving nearly 2,000 travelers stranded over Easter weekend. Emergency crews guided stranded motorists around the damaged roadway, with convoys leading essential travelers through the closure area at set times. The closure complicates previous timelines for reopening the highway, which has been affected by previous rockslides. The storm that damaged Highway 1 is part of severe weather affecting western parts of the US, with forecasts warning of potential tornadoes, hail, and intense winds in the midwest area.
