You can check out 511 for each state. I drove through OH and it was on the overhead displays. Prime sends us updates on the QC as well.

Be safe everyone ;)

Ohhh... Gunny story bout that spot...I was coming in there and didn't realize it was so close due to fog. I passed it and in front of me was "no trucks winding road" sign. Ooopps

Turned into the hotel across the street and the stupid cars kept coming. Uggggghhh!!! I'll never make that mistake again.

I drove through the crappy storm in AR n MO the other day....then in OH and KY today. Solo glad I got out of that area. I'm 150 miles to customer and hoping all is well. You know weather men only have a 50/50 shot at being right. Lol

Buddy of mine was in Oneonta for a drop - another driver from his company (who is a 4 year veteran) had the brilliant idea to make a run on secondary roads, empty, in the middle of the night, with no chains - trying to get from there, to I-81 in PA (which is dumb, because the interstates are all closed to empty TT's anyways).

Ended up like this in lakewood PA.

For gods sake - if you're somewhere SAFE - STAY THERE. If you're not, chain up and get there (these guys weren't even carrying chains).

The way this is looking - nothing is going to be moving until Wed PM/Thu AM at THE EARLIEST.
