just need to vent!
« on: February 16, 2013 - 10:43:46 PM »
Crap!!!

Just finished the drive to my inlaws, wife was driving.

Usually the drive takes us two hours...tonight was almost 4!!

Seems its been snowing most of the day out this way...but our inlaws did not bother to tell us before we left. The highways were just horrible... at least a dozen cars in the ditch (with tags on them so likely form much earlier in the day) and one tractor tralier jack kinfed.

If we had know it was snowing out this way, we probably would not have made the drive.

I think I am so pissed because whenever we ask my inlaws to come down to our place they make a point to say yes but depending on the weather...I guess that only applies to them.

breath.....thanks just need to get that off my chest!!

You might want to start telling them your trips are "weather depending".

At least you made it safe!

Here in CA we have dial 511.

It will tell you road conditions, traffic conditions etc.

I use it alot when I sense there could be an accident tying up the freeway.

When I heard the word "vent' and "in-laws", I knew it wasn't going to be pretty.  :smilielol: Glad you made it one piece. Hope you leave in one piece!  :roflsmiley:

Do you have weather dot com up there in Canada? You can just enter in the zip code of the area you will be traveling to to get the latest weather info.
