    I-80 started out ok at Walcott with one lean clean and the other lane with just a little shine in the tracks where trucks run. Then it would intermittently get a little snotty. 380 was fine going up to Cedar Rapids, but once on all those bridges you could feel it was a little slick. Cleared CR and the roads went back to fine until you hop off in Waterloo, and the city crews aren't as good as the state crews at clearing roads. Once out of sight of Waterloo the roads were dry with a little wispy snow blowing across. Doing my 30 just north of Clear Lake and will be headed north and west shortly.

    They're like politicians...can say what they want, do their job as half-arsed as they please and still have a job.
