It was "Make Your Own Lane" night on 294 today. What should have been a 2.5 hour trip (with those road conditions) took 4. So now I only have 45 minutes on my 11 and 90 miles to the house with clear roads in front of me. By 0530 tomorrow the storm will have pushed north and I will be crawling my BT home.
What if it Snows?

Is it worth a hop up to 90 or down to whatever the next best one is south of you?Rocks, D.Tibbitt, WesternPlains and 1 other person Thank this. -
90 adds quite a few miles if someplace along 80 is your destination, like 550 up and back, and it's no picnic either.Cattleman84, Rocks, WesternPlains and 1 other person Thank this. -
They are forecasting winds to die down mid day Saturday in WHY-OH-MING.
I think 75 is a category 1 hurricane isn't it???77fib77, Cattleman84, InTooDeep and 3 others Thank this. -
