Before I reached my first stop, the Interstate was closed because of freezing rain, so I had to take back roads to the first stop. By noon, it had changed to snow, with winds of 40 mph. Around 2 pm they issued blizzard warnings and most of the residential driveways were no longer visible. Literally, I saw hundreds of cars in the ditch or stuck. On a particular two mile stretch of Interstate I counted 16 cars off in the ditch or median. I punched out at 6 pm, brought back 5 EC's. It then took me three hours to make my commute home. In 31 Christmas' at UPS, I had never seen such road conditions. I felt lucky to make it home.
I wondered how it was for you guys out there. We had one like that in 03 I think it was. Snow came down an inch an hour, center manager sent out message at 3pm to stop deliveries and head in, it took me 4hrs to drive in, usually only an hour drive, scared me to death.
Glad you made it home ok, Hope you had a Merry Christmas.
