Midwest Freezing rain forecasted Friday

Supposed to rain all night tonight into the morning here in LA.

I hear lots of public service announcements on the radio and people I talk to here are already freaking out!

Don't know how to act when they get some rain.

 

Do you have a link to this page? Stupid Weather Channel app doesn't have a daily/weekly planner with a big picture of what's going on with the weather.

 

Folks..........

Don't Feel 'embarrassed' Because your only driving 20-30mph in poor weather,It Shows that you'll be back again!!!

last Night,I was coming west on the Indiana Toll Road- Blowing snow covering the roadway-3 degrees-Salt trucks sittin still...... I Give heavy Props to the FedEx Triple Driver showing his professionalism-

Everybody was still doing 60-65 mph on glazed icy road surface- Me and That Wiggle Wagon made it back safely......

 

Indian toll road was still slick in the so. Bend area this morning

 

I need a vacation...

 

Great. Sitting in San Bernadino to unload this evening. Then have two pickups in LA tomorrow morning with first not there until 07:00. So, I guess I'll be driving in rain amongst those who don't know what rain is on the way into LA. What? Maybe a 2 hour drive San Bernadino to the LA Blue Beacon to arrive around 06:30?

Actually, the drive into my #1 08:00 drop in LaPuente across 60 this morning was not half as bad as I was expecting it to be, but it wasn't raining.

 

I was in Minnesota a few days ago when the last storm went through. I really only felt comfortable doing 35-40 through the parts that were snowpacked across the whole road considering it was dark and still snowing in Minneapolis. Of course, that didn't slow most four-wheelers and trucks down. I just don't see how people can consider 55+ a safe speed in those conditions. Fortunately, I only saw a few spun-out cars, all on the right shoulder--one halfway down the embankment--but it was still early.

 

Came out of some little po dunk town in OK last Saturday, fog thick as pea soup on a goat trail no less.
Driving 40 in a 55 two truckers behind me talking on CB wishing I would get out the way, I slowed down to 30, lmao.

 

I just looked at Omaha weather and the trip home isn't sounding good ..ice and snow as far south as KC .
And we all know what a junkyard 80 across iowa turns into when it gets slick .

 

Sent a message to my female know it all dispatcher who rode with her hubby in the past letting her know it may be a slow ride home .
First thing out of her mouth was my hubby says it will be fine and he has trucks ! She will let me know of road closures lmao.
Brad's reply : your hubby don't drive my truck and I don't run till the road is closed and I'll keep you advised mam and I didn't get 30 accident free years by listening to desk top truckers .
