Jonas storm 2016 Check In! You safe you stopped?

Loaded in Tennessee Thursday night. Made it to Pilot on I-24 around mm 80-something in Kentucky for the night. Woke up to ice and snow. Waited for a little daylight and plows to do their thing. First 50 miles downright scary at times.
Roads cleared good but still snowing hard halfway to Paducah. Bypassed goofy Kentucky backroads (that are barely passable on a clear day) by going up through Illinois and crossing the river at Cape.
Missouri sunny and clear.
Home for weekend.

 

Got home in Colorado yesterday evening, unload down the road Monday morning. 65 degrees today, supposed to be 60 tomorrow

 

You guys been busy? I haven't been running to North Dakota lately. When I do I see lots of your trucks.

 

Most of the 5 axle guys are staying consistent but not super busy. Our heavy haul side is slow, I've done 5 or 6 loads since Thanksgiving and been home 4 weeks during that time.

 

LOL 5" is not getting hammered nor anything to brag about....LOL Hell, down there in Tennessee they close the schools if someone drops an ice cube tray in the morning.

 

Pennlive.com says everything is moving again

 

I agree. I lived in Alaska for 5 years and this type of a storm was a common occurrence. It never made the national news and no one panicked, we just accepted it and Made the best of the situation.

 

Good to know, I'm getting ready to start heading that way. Got to be in Pottsville by 18:30. Figure if I leave at 9 that gives me approximately 2.5 to play with.

 

We got about 1/8 inch of snow here in Chatt, didn't even stick to the roads. My route is to Johnson City, where they got about 8 inches, and back 5 nights per week. We didn't run Fri night so I gotta go do it today. I'll leave out after church.
