so glad I decided to run yesterday and got over here, because #WinterStormDiaz is making an absolute mess. per the company-wide message from my work.

I80 closed in WY. I25 closed in WY north of Cheyenne.

I70 and I25 in CO covered with snow and ice, travel strongly discouraged.

NE all highways north or west of North Platte closed.

conditions bad in the western half of SD.

and so on and so forth. stay home if you can. #PSA #PublicServiceAnnouncement #SafetyFirst #Weather #WinterStorm

the road got a lot better once I got to Utah.

that being said, the best advice for winter driving that I can give?

if you don't have to go anywhere, stay home.

doubly so for long distance trips. the fewer people on the road, the safer it is for the big trucks who do have to be out there.

check the road conditions before you go and along the way, because conditions can change rapidly during a #WinterStorm such as #WinterStormDiaz. #PSA #PublicServiceAnnouncement #SafetyFirst #TruckingLife

@jscartergilson always careful; however this is #WinterStormDiaz, and it's unlikely to let up soon enough for me to want to do anything else today. this is a nice truck stop.
