People don't know how to slowdown and use caution in the snow. This looks like about 5-6". We got almost 2' last Monday from just lake effect. We expect 8-12" overnight Sunday from this.

I went through Des Moines early Friday morning, roads weren't bad yet. Couple of morons here and there but thankfully I got out of there before the storm hit. Currently in Walcott Iowa and it's gotten pretty bad here. Lots of snow and wind, roads are absolute crap. Virtually no plows going through until the storm dies down. They just can't keep up and there's really no point in trying. Mother nature will always win. Stay off the roads unless it's an emergency .

We had an unexpected freezing rain and even in Maine it caught everyone off guard including DOT that would otherwise be prepared...can't battle any untreated road. It doesn't matter where you're at. And of course, people think they can drive fine 'slowly'...not in ice. Unless you had studs or chains it's just impossible. So many crashes too :\

I live in IA and foolishly decided to take my modified Stang to work (Ames to Nevada). My Stang is about 500~ hp with no weight in the trunk. I knew snow was coming but the prediction was less than 2"...hence I took the Stang. Nevada and Ames ended up with ~6" snow. Luckily I have all brand new Nitto tires but the drive home @11pm was still a white-knuckle ride.

The closer I to home, the worse the roads got. Had snow drifts clear up the grill of my little suv. If my vehicle didn’t have good tires and 4X4, I’d be in a ditch. Won’t even be able to get to work due to the roads being as bad as there in town.

My snow tires are loud but they stay on the truck all year . Why drive fast If you have never driven on ice or snow? I blew a foot of snow out of my drive here on Manitoulin Island and It was 25 below F. That is a thin layer of snow by Canadian standards. Stay home or slow down and leave plenty of distance between vehicles.
