Buck531 Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 When do you think they'll start issuing level warnings.. 1-2-3? Maybe during the course of the day when we start seeing up to 8-10 inches of snow? I was suprised they didn't even issue a level 1 for Franklin county.

excell Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 As I understand it, the freeways are clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck531 Posted February 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Yeah, that's what they've been saying on the news. So basically, if the highways are shit, they start issuing the warnings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHaze Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 I can't even get to a freeway quickly in this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Freeway was not clear at 7am this mornimg, traffic was doing 15-20 mph. It is only going to get worse because the plows will never keep up. If it is a level 3 I will still be out, I run my wifes friends who are RNs to the hospital so they can be at work.

JaSSon Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 I was on 270 from 6:40 to ~7:20am. Freeways were a mess. FAR from clear (IE, SEVERAL inches still on the roads in some areas, bu all areas covered.) But, I had fun. I was laughing watching an unloaded Semi try to pass a slower moving car. It didn't work out well for him. All 6 wheels were all over the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceGhost Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 No I just do it so they get to work safe because medical personnel have to go to work. And they are friends of ours. I did this a few years ago with the 12-18 inches we had and it was a Level 3. Plus I get to be out in it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoe Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 I'm at my office, but we are closed till 3pm. Re-evaluating the weather to see if we might just close completely before then. I'll be at Mad River Mountain for 6PM, anyone interested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rice Eater Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 I was on 270 at 70 on the west side at 7:30 and it was a mess. Thank god for 4wd! Weather channel online is calling for 5-9" by tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go tonight if UPS shuts down.........but there's no way that's going to happen. The only reason we will get out of work is if it is a Level 3 and I dont see that happening. Also, at that point I wouldn't be driving to MRM in level 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excell Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Also, at that point I wouldn't be driving to MRM in level 3 I went a few years ago during a level 3. It was totally worth it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duff1647545513 Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 Might have to consider it then. I hope we shut down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XChris1632X Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 yeah about two or three years ago i went during a level three, people werent even supposed to be on the roads but when we got up there it was only a level two. We would of never made it home if we wouldnt of taken my buddies wrangler, that thing was sick in the snow. The road were scattered on both side with cars that just couldnt go any longer and cars that lost control. It was definatly one of the sweetest night for snowboarding at mad river.

That's what I'm most worried about..... I don't know how well my Grand Prix will do in that much of snow. I'm a good driver in the snow and all, but you can only do as well as your vehicle will let you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excell Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 If you're driving the Grand Prix, I'd say stay home. 4WD only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoe Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 AWD, or stay home is my opinion. It is not easy driving out there, even with AWD. I'm looking to leave Columbus around 4 to get there for 6 and hopefully be early. I have no problem driving slow. I have the camera mounted in the car and will post if I get good vid.
