    I can't be the only one that got to feel some of Tropical Storm Zeta?



    From Asheville, NC to Spartanburg, SC along I-26 this morning it was pretty eventful. Headed east was backed up 3 times for trees blocking the road.

    This truck was stuck in the mud, someone on the radio said he swerved to avoid being hit as the tree was coming down, I bet his underwear turned brown :p

    Flatbed and tanker got tangled up headed west...

    I was in It today.
    came up from rock hill SC to Lexington NC wind blowing like crazy, trees down, and multiple traffic lites with out power.
    By the the time I got to the auto auction at statesville the sun came out.
    Finally got back on the road from an 11/2 hr delay and caught back up to rain at the top of Fancy Gap.
    Less wind but rained steadily all the way to Carlisle PA where I stopped for the night.
    5 hrs to home in the morning with 5 inches of snow expected.
    I just love north east PA 81 when it’s snowing...
