    So I'm picking up in Iowa going to Sacramento, California, delivering Tuesday. I'm gonna take I-80W so how's it looking right now, any snow, ice I should worry about? Thanks.

    lots of states use the 511 web site or have their own 511 just Google state name and 511. CA i believe CalTrans runs everything. I know theyhave cams on 80 where you want to know about like Donner, etc. On Trucker Path as long as it's showing green traffic I wouldn't look at the cams. Once it shows yellow or red at state line then I start looking at particular cams.

    My snow route out of California is south on 99, 58 east15 North or 10 East. California is too quick to require chains.
