Cold weather, Ice, Snow

[Trip McNeely]

It's snowing hard here in Pittsburgh, but snow is easy to drive in.

At least we could drive on that crap!

What's 35E north of Carrollton looking like, is the bridge at Lewisville still a cluster fuck?

Trying to decide on a route to get someone to work from White Settlement Road past Chapel Creek to downtown Fort Worth at 6am tomorrow. We had planned to get out this afternoon to test the roads. Just waiting until the temp comes up so I can get a better idea of what it might be like in the morning.

It shouldn't be that bad it the roads maintain steady traffic constantly. It's the less travelled roadways you need to worry about

Solid ice, but there are some ruts that aren't as slick. White Settlement is passable up to Chapel Creek, but we haven't had to go past that. Whatever you do, don't get on I-30 west of town. The line of big rigs out there was ridiculous. We ended up coming back east on the access road. 820 isn't much better.

Coming back from Houston to Arlington in a few hours. Left on Friday at noon and it wasn't too bad. How bad is it now? Coming up 45 to 20, then west to Bowen. Any highways shut down or to completely avoid?

I'm looking at I35E at 287 right now. Looks like it is flowing well with normal speeds and moderate traffic.

Anyone been out White Settlement Road towards Aledo?

What about Camp Bowie west?

Isnt it supposed to melt for a few hours today and refreeze?

Aledo is not somewhere you want to be driving. Took me 2 hours to get from south FM 5 TO Brookshires and back yesterday. Roads are 4 to 6" in ice. There are some spots that are traversable but 1187 south of 20 is some scary stuff!

Total time stranded in traffic 23 hours... 11 in weatherford and 12 in west fort worth. Luckily I'm in a big truck so I've idled the whole time.

Damn.

These poor folks out there have been stuck in the same place for 26 hours!

It is nice to watch the news and not have all the shootings and murders.

Yup now the democrats will have something else to ban. Like sleet and snow.
