Good Move!

 

hate to hear that...my son is on his way thru SD on I-90 headed to detroit....
at least he calls me every few hours to up date me on how he is doing and I inform him of the weather conditions...and also advd him if he didnt feel safe to park the truck...made sure he had all his fuel additives and airline antifreeze and how to run in sub zero temps and to stock up on drinks and food JUST INCASE....
Praying he makes it ok...
He is only in his second month of trucking...

 

Well,I dont know bout S.D.,but I-90 is CLOSED in Mn at the SD border,I wish him the best.

 

Landshark who does your son drive for?

 

He is with CRST

 

Yeah it's getting bad here in MN, they just pulled all the county and city plows off the road in my county just a couple minutes ago. We've got approx 17-20 inches of snow on the ground right now and not supposed to stop until sunday morning. This is a bad storm, 30-40 mph winds with temps dropping to single digits and wind chills to -20.

 

Sounds like that is whats headed to MI in the next few hours. They are saying about 5 to 10 inches but could be more.

 

Chris (Charlb) is stuck in this right now in SD, he said all roads out are shut down...
