    I need to know what lanes to run currently.. I am trying to avoid bad weather conditions, most of all the path of the storm .. I need some advice on the lanes to run because I don’t have the knowledge of putting on chains yet.. however I do not mind driving in the snow as long as chains are not required .. I just don’t want to end up another statistic in a pileup on a major highway due to black ice etc... my current location is south Florida


    I will run everywhere if the weather was good .. I’m just in a bind to figure out what direction to take because the storm is technically going from west to east ..

    You might as well stay in florida until march or april when it starts to warm up.

    I stayed home this week. I broke my glasses so it helped. Who wants to work when it's -4'F in the morning. It's pretty hard on equipment too. So, this Friday or Monday I'll go to work again.

    I'm not thinking a lot of people are going to tell you the best lanes to run. Sorry, gotta figure that out for yourself. From what I've learned, it's pretty much anywhere but S Florida.

    Don't stress about the weather, by the time you get there it's going to change. Even Texas will be above freezing and getting back to normal by the weekend.

    With that mindset then sell now while equipment prices are high.
