Commuters on Monday afternoon were treated to a rare site: a "storrowing," but not on Storrow Drive: on I-93 in Medford at Roosevelt Circle.

A tractor trailer hauling a substantially large metal structure hit the Roosevelt Circle overpass while traveling southbound on I-93 early on in the Monday afternoon commute. According to the Boston Globe, damage to the outside beam on the Roosevelt Circle eastbound overpass is substantial and repairs could take months.

In other words, expect lane closures on that stretch of I-93 south and detours in and around the Roosevelt Circle rotary for the rest of the summer. And maybe longer.

Remember a year ago, when most of us were working from home? Can we go back to that? The working-from-home part, I mean?
