It was bad. 4 people killed - at least one burned alive. I-4 is still closed. they're going to have to take up about 600 feet of road and repave it tonight. I-4 should reopen tomorrow.

They said that the exact same conditions existed this morning for the fog to cover I-4 again. I wonder if that's why it's closed today?

Latest update is they're still clearing out the wreckage and repaving the wrecked portion of I-4. All the affected vehicles and trucks are gonna be moved to the airfield at Fantasy of Flight in Polk County. Could be tomorrow, the weekend, next week, etc. as far as when I-4 will be reopened.
