    This is fortunately rarely occurring weather conditions for South Texas. I-20 closed between Pecos and Odessa/Midland. Even I-35 is slow between San Antonio and Laredo. San Antonio looks like it's virtually shut down.

    I-45 sucks

    I drove from dfw tonight and stopped at the pilot in Huntsville, tx . About an hour north of Houston.

    Snow covered roads the whole way, can’t see the lane except for previous tire tracks. Pilot parking lot snow covered.

    I used to work out of Fargo, so I’m not unused to this, but surprising to see it this way this far South.

    The problem in Texas is the DOT plan is wait until the sun comes out.

    Hard to spend that money on sand and salt when you're pretending to spend it on road construction.
