Help me with my guilt. Plan was to drive from DC to Kentucky (near Lexington) tomorrow.

Posted by loosilu (aka loosilu2) Dec 22 '22, 12:08

Both here and there, it's cold and rainy today. Overnight in WV it's going to drop from about 40F to -1F, rain turning to snow. I have to cross the WV mountains and I think the roads will be sheer glass.
Last year I got into a major accident and now I'm spooked. I don't want to do the drive tomorrow. I don't know if Saturday will be any better, but at least they will have a chance to clean it up, so I can reassess.
Yes? good plan?

Don't fuck with mountain storms. -- nm - Reagen Dec 22, 12:50
I would suggest you don't. -- nm - Remlik Dec 22, 12:44
Evaluate it day by day. Tonight I would definitely say is out. Tomorrow afternoon is when the weather alert expires in KY. Would be a judgement - kilbowlful of jelly Dec 22, 12:41

If you can't drive safely (and it sounds like it definitely is not), then don't go. -- nm - Andie Dec 22, 12:18 4
- I need this. In my family the men are absolutely bloody minded about driving no matter what the weather. - loosilu Dec 22, 12:20
- Yeah, fly. -- nm - Spawn Dec 22, 12:19 2
  - HAHAHAHA! DC just before Christmas is not optimal for that. -- nm - loosilu Dec 22, 12:21 1
    - (more optimal than driving, i suspect) -- nm - Spawn Dec 22, 12:55
I would wait -- nm - decline Dec 22, 12:14 1
