    This storm looks to be shaping up to be a doozy.

    There were flurries yesterday on 40 in NM. There was a nice little 400 mph head / cross wind that took my fuel milage for the trip from 8.1 to 6.8.

    Well it WTF snowed again. Only for 200 miles. Only.

    Like pretty much the whole way across Idaho.

    And it WTF snowed like 50 miles east of Boise to Boise. And of course the coup was open.

    Carnage total from when I went through:

    All single vehicle CRASHES

    1 monster dry bulk set up, one of those with like 10 axles and a 4 axle pup, folded up in a triangle several feet deep in a drift. Looked like the wrecker was telling him he couldn't get there from here.

    4 cars up to their windows in drifts. 2 on the side, 2 in the median.

    2 cars, and 1 pick up being loaded on wreckers.

    1 car pointing strait up a berm on the west, not snowing side, of Boise.

    Honorable Mention :

    Schneider. LOL.
    Parked a few miles before the base of the hills east of Boise, maybe 10 or 15 miles east of the coup, and it was snowing like a B at this point, with his four ways on, waving his vest out the window LMFAO.

    The cats slept through the whole thing, and don't really understand what all the hoopla is about.
