snowmagnet Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 My daughter is driving back to UMW in Fredericksburg today around noon. I’m hoping that is the best time for the least snow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing how bad the roads are with a half inch. I think they forgot to treat them. That half inch or so of cold smoke from a clipper a couple of days before the Jan. 2016 blizzard caused similar incidents. I was driving home that evening and it was truly white-knuckle driving, the roads were a mess. No real treatment so cars effectively packed it down into a sheet of ice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayyy Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Just watched a car completely sliding down a hill in dc. Amazing how bad the roads are with a half inch. I think they forgot to treat them. This was the on ramp to 29 in Ellicott city earlier after I exited to stop for my morning coffee. Completely slick. Car in front of me almost spun out. Definitely forgot to treat it lol That ish doesn’t fly up in the sticks. We need our roads brined cause the roads are already tricky enough being narrow / windy 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HRRR has been on an island vs other guidance in regards to the axis of heavier precip. Will be interesting to see how it plays out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they forgot to treat them. They probably weren’t tracking that it might snow overnight. The WWA didn’t get posted until like 4 am. I don’t recall any brine yesterday.locally. Unless I just wasn’t paying attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
