Yep. We will have 20-30 mph winds and blowing snow with 2-4 ft drifts for the morning drive

I'm on the road all week. Tyler, Texarkana, and Waco. I thought I'd get clever, and swap a couple of my days around to avoid the worst of it, but no dice. Apparently even Waco is supposed to get hit hard with this.

You moved??

Damn didn't you have the golf hookup?

Eh I will show up either way just to keep from killing the OT.. I can do some work from home but not enough to justify billing the 8 hrs.

I drive 40+ miles the past 3-4 big ice storms we have encountered. Drive slow, take your time, and you will be fine.

People take advantage of these days and it irritates me. Last year we had a guy call in on a "forecasted icy day". He said he was stuck in his garage cause of the ice, well, that day it was 65 degrees.

If I can drive 40 miles and be in my car for an hour and a half to two hours, you sure as hell can do it too.

Was it 10 years ago...ice storm socked the metroplex, 1-2 inches of ice. People were stuck their cars overnight in "the canyon" other highways around downtown Dallas.

The last truly shitty one I remember, was the one on Thanksgiving. We had 5 people, in a 92 Honda Accord, and took us 19 hours to get back to DFW from Vernon. The infamous Leon Lett incident.

There was one about 7 years ago. Maybe that is what you are thinking of. I had to spend a few nights in downtown Dallas. Couldn't get in or out of Downtown.

Yes, 2003. I spent the night on I-20 that night because of highway shut downs.

I just Googled and found a storm in 1999, which would been about right as I was living in near downtown Fort Worth. Another in 2005...can't remember which year now!
