We pulled off the road in hopes the wind and snow would let up and here is what we saw...this was the weakest at this point looking across the highway.
We were in between the city and a small town...the highway was not yet closed. It was closer to go back to the city or stay on the highway and get buried or even hit.

It just got worse and worse.
When we came into the city, every road out is closed.
We just heard that there are some serious accidents and some fatalities. At one point I came across some vehicles stopped.
They were all lined up diagonally across part of the highway. They thought they were in a straight line along the shoulder.
I was driving at 15KMH top speed.
A lot of people got caught by surprise today.

Thats pretty intense!
If you were in California, something like that would've made you slow down to 70mph!

I know about the speed reduction to 70 in CA...then the CB tells about the parking lot up ahead all over the interstate.
It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!

I have driven in just too many of those. No fun! Thanks Scotty for reminding me what I hope never to be in again. So when are you planning on moving SoB?

I though it was the Canadian Government....and they didnt buy it....I heard that they are thinking of incorporating the islands into Canada....pretty sure the islands were previously British ruled under the Commonwealth.......
