    Think about all the over priced equipment that got wrecked today. I actually saw a couple trailers in the ditch worth putting an offer on. Lol

    Yeah and mostly because of what came before the actual snow, ice and sleet. The storm system in most parts of it (and I think in all of Missouri) started with rain with temps well above freezing before temps dipped below the freezing point to start producing the snow, ice and sleet. Meaning the snow, ice and sleet had a good foundation of wet rain already on the surface to set up for some really brutal road conditions.

    With technology today and 511 Apps at the touch of a finger, and with forecasters warning people about what a monster of a storm system this was going to be far in advance, I have to wonder what possesses someone to think that trying to drive in this is going to end up with a positive result?

    I'd throw Steven, Thomas, and Connor in the suspect pool too.
