    Hi All,
    Ok, I have made a couple runs from Indy to Pomona via I40-I15 in November and had no issues.
    Getting ready to take off tomorrow and I have kept an eye on weather as I have not driven in much snow/ice conditions. Looking at the weather I am not to concerned but curious about the couple of grades in NM and AZ. If weather map looks clear and no weather been through are these generally clear rolling? Any advice appreciated.

    Thanks in Advance!

    Arizona DOT statewide map situation Traffic, weather etc.

    Focus on Winslow and Flagstaff section. That would be where winter will rage if you are not careful.

    AZ 511 - ADOT

    Winterstorm Harper has gone past Indiana and is currently concentrated east of Indianapolis all the way to maine

    PA, NJ, NY has banned all Semi trucks so you are not going that way any time soon.

    You have a new winter storm developing in the dakotas all the way down to NM. So check with that weather constantly this week. We expect some weather here in Arkansas again later this week from this system on our I-40. It could be anything, but usually rain if anything.

    You can take 40 to Santa Rosa NM go down to Alamogordo get 10 to southern California.

    You can also drop down to Memphis to Dallas to southern California. That might be 240 miles more. You can double check
