The Grapevine was shut down shortly after this picture was taken.

The California Highway Patrol closed Interstate 5, also known as the Grapevine, Monday night due to severe weather.  The Cajon Pass was open as of 10:20 p.m.

Northbound lanes of Interstate 5 at Parker Road Exit were closed as were southbound I-5 lanes at the Grapevine Exit.

The CHP hopes to reopen the main connection for California by morning but no time was set as of 9:30 p.m.  

Snow, wind,  low-lying fog and icy road conditions are to blame for closing both passes.
