    No kidding. There are so many people that get out there even though the roads are crap. Just stay home people!

    But they have anti-lock brakes and 4-wheel drive so they think they can handle anything.:biggrin_25510:

    I agreed to take a load from Indiana to Rapid City SD.

    I am going around the storm. Only 30 miles farther to go through IA. Maybe snag a two lane road and make it closer. But you have to stay south of the northern snow in IA.

    Unfortunately, a check of road conditions in SD, may be a problem tomorrow.

    Currrently in western Illinois.

    Sounds like you have a good plan there then. Stay safe!

    They are now advising no travel tomorrow in WI through the afternoon.

    Still snowing in the Eastern half of SD and roads still closed. Going south of here would be the best bet if the load has to be delivered.

    The southern part of WI is quiet right now, but more crap will be coming down soon. Watch your butts out there. Central WI had a lot more snow yesterday, and it was still coming down this morning.
