Cold weather, Ice, Snow

[BLAKE]

It's really not that bad out there. Got to lunch and the office with zero problems.

Damn. I'm trying to avoid calling in but will if i have to. I'll be going from Corinth to denton. But the shitty part is i won't be coming back until 1230 tonight.

Things should be better then 8:30 this morning but all bets are off now that it's overcast and no more help from direct sunlight. If you gotta head out there be careful.

Anybody driven in denton today?

Yeah, Corinth to Denton, then back to Fort Worth, 35 is fine, I was going 70 most of the way back.

Same, I took camp wisdom to 161 and it was decent/somewhat slow until lower tarrant, and there is a bunch of ice on that bridge so people stopped and I hit traffic.

Green Oaks/157 was all clear except for the bridge over Division and the one south of the dump. Didn't hit any traffic until Grapevine. From what I hear, the DFW Connector corridor is ridiculous.

Just took a trip to Walmart. The back roads were still a little sketchy. While on the way a huge chunk of ice (3" thick by about 4' long) fell off a tree and landed right on the windshield, scared the hell out of the wife.

Wife and I got out in our MDX on Saturday just because it was a new car and we didn't know how it would handle ice and just wanted to try it out.

The SH-AWD systems from Honda are top notch. It climbed hills that FWD cars were just sitting and spinning on. We had to pick my parents up on Sunday for church because my Dad's truck, with chains, couldn't get out of their neighborhood.

We delayed opening until 10 today so I got to sleep in for a little bit and the traffic was not so bad until I tried the highways. 114 through Southlake was a nightmare and 114 to 121 NB terrible even at 9:30a

I wonder what 5:00 rush hour will bring us...

I'm about to try out my SH-AWD TL. I can't take it in this house anymore.

After driving around all weekend on the west side in an FX2 its hilarious how horrible people are at driving in this shit. I never once got stuck, spun out, etc. I probably had 500# of frozen sleet in the bed, and just took it smooth and slow. I did use the locking rear a couple of times, and I really like how you can lock out gears whiles in drive, makes it easy.

When its ice it sucks no matter what you're in... I think alot of people in 4x4 think they are invincible and drive like it. I can't count the number of 4wd trucks I passed that were completely stuck.

This weather always makes me want to buy a wrangler but jeep never does 0% financing for longer than 36 months anymore

You get a new '14 MDX? I'm seeing a TON of those on the road (very noticeable due to the LED headlights). Great SUV!

I drove this morning from Corinth to Denton then attempted to make it to Lewisville. It didn't go well. I turned back around, called into work and went home.

People always make fun of others that hit the grocery stores and stock up on everything before a possible weather emergency, but fail to recognize that those people know for sure that they don't have to get back out for that stuff if/when it happens.

We had NOTHING as far as ice in east Texas, but I moved enough firewood that you would have thought an ice age was coming. I am completely tapped out.
