TransAm Trucking, Inc. - Olathe, Ks.?

I'm a little more medieval, no shotgun for me. I would have grabbed the compound bow and the sword.

 

yeah I'll be going to Atlanta. I need to be in our terminal in Atlanta by Wednesday night so I can catch the Thursday morning bus home for my home time

 

TRUCK DRIVERS: If you are coming through GEORGIA, you need to expect to be pulled into the coops... as of 0600 this morning, Georgia implemented 100% pull in policy due to the winter storm. Also, when the weather hits, ONLY trucks that HAVE to be inside the I-285 perimeter will be allowed. For the next 72 hours, if you come through Georgia, mainly north of the I-20 corridor, pay attention... they have said they may throw up chain restrictions and/or detour you off the interstates. This could save you guys headaches and time!

 

If I see any updates,kf4omc, I will post them here for you.

 

This is from one of the Atlanta news stations -


Atlanta Public Schools announced the system would be closed Tuesday and Wednesday.
And Georgia Power's top emergency official said he'd already started calling in crews from other states to help fix downed power lines -- just in case.
Their biggest worry? The threat of a major ice storm Tuesday night.
"When you're talking about the amount of ice we're looking at, it's catastrophic," Aaron Strickland, the utility's storm center manager, told reporters. "What will happen is that the ice will build up on trees, trees will come down and take down the power lines. ... So It is an event that we are extremely fearful of, but we're preparing (by) bringing in outside help at this time."
Snow, sleet and rain are in the forecast from Monday night through Wednesday morning as temperatures plunge to the 30s. By Wednesday, ice on the roads could make driving "hazardous or impossible," forecasters from the National Weather Service warned.
The city's northern suburbs could get 1 to 3 inches of snow, with up to 6 inches blanketing the northeast Georgia mountains. A winter storm watch is in effect Monday through Wednesday morning for Atlanta and the watch stretches west to Birmingham, Alabama; Memphis, Tennessee and Little Rock, Arkansas.

 

The biggest thing I hate about NJ is, loaders don't speak English very well, if at all!!!

Thing I hate about this smart phone, is the dang spell checker!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

 

Well my dispatcher routed me with a load going to Winter Haven. Just have to get out of south carolina now. So instead of going to Atlanta tp go hone I will just goto the company Terminal in Lakeland and park truck there. That is where my car is anyway.

 

I am so glad, kf4omc, it looks as if Atlanta is going to be hit pretty hard with ice. Finally a dispatcher with common sense!

 

dispatcher isnt that smart if he dispatches for werner

 

Now, Pete, I know it would be an anomaly but on rare occasions intelligent life forms have been identified in the offices of trucking carriers.
