yep, it was the dreaded “black ice” I had to drive from S. GA into Atl Wed for work. Left the company car at home and took my Wrangler. stayed on US 19...avoided the interstates as they were downright apocalyptic. Drove from Hampton to airport in 4WH about 35 mph. Counted about 10 cars the whole way in. Got my business done quickly and headed back out. People were abandoning their cars and wandering up the ramps for 285. Sad sight. I packed appropriate gear, just incase. The Ice buildup on my jeep was incredible for a So. GA boy. I’m sure you guys in snowy regions have seen plenty worse. Pulled a few folks out of the ditch along the way and on the return including a Clayton Co d eputy in a Ford Expedition who shall remain nameless. If someone can post a picture I can share some photos. Praying for those still affected.
In the snow months ~ December to March here I keep the boots, heavy winter coat, hat and gloves in my car for emergencies as I regularly drive in snow.
Dealing with other Maryland drivers in winter weather is an adventure.
On my phone I have a free app called WAZE nav function with voice map directions and on the spot reporting of traffic, accidents, police, traffic fine cameras.
Its great for leaving the highway at night onto side roads I am not familiar with, to get out of traffic.
Here in Maryland the schools would have closed that morning.
