It usually takes me about 25 minutes; today it took 1 hour and 10 minutes.
While the sand/brine mixture is a nice gesture, a plow really would have been the best choice. Sand or "brine" turns the 4" of snow into 4" of slushy muddy mix, and without a plow, that slushy muddy mix remains on the road.
We had a 90 minute delay last Friday for a very small amount of snow. Much less than what we have today. No early dismissal for me either.
Here's what the next 24 hours will look like:
Delightful!
Actually, since taking that screen shot, the rain piece has been removed from the forecast. Now it's just rain, snow, sleet til 4 -- then snow and sleet after 4.
I'm thinking my speedwork may have to wait til tomorrow :( They're saying no unnecessary driving, and I don't know that a short speedwork session constitutes necessary driving to the gym. We'll see how slick it is when I get home!
Anyone else getting this crazy storm right now?
SO MUCH SNOW!!! AHHHH!! An 70 minute commute...holy cow! I LOVE your lulu bag and those cookies look AMAZING!! Don't freeze! We had a little snow yesterday but not bad at all!
ReplyDeletemy goodness that is one scary commute! I would be terrified.
ReplyDeletei'm sorry about your commute. that's truly awful.
ReplyDeleteWednesday morning was bad!! We ended up getting an additional 12" that night so we had a snow day today (and I drove no where!) Apparently they weren't able to clear the roads well enough today (seriously!?) so I already got a call that we have a 90 minute delay tomorrow morning!
