I'm at the family home in Allentown. I'm heading off for Pittsburgh soon. As has been widely reported, getting across the state is ugly. In the eastern part of the state, I-78 is closed; I-80 is closed; I-81 is closed between those two; and I-76, the PA Turnpike, is closed between Reading and Harrisburg due to a hazmat tanker truck overturning, with a detour posted online. The Turnpike is toll-free until they get the other interstates reopened. (Those parts of the Turnpike that aren't closed, of course.)

It looks like I will be going out US-222 to Reading, then out US-422 or US-322 to Harrisburg. At that point I'll decide how to proceed further west.

FWIW, I appear to be at loose ends all evening once I get to Pittsburgh. Anyone up for getting together?

ETA 0045 Saturday morning: Finally got to Pittsburgh, *just now*, so it's just as well that nobody was free. Painful travelogue behind the cut. ) But I'm in Pittsburgh now.
