^^ I know what you mean, but I'm pretty sure we'll luck out and Saturday will be clear.

How's the weather in Duluth? Did the bad part hit you yet?

By the looks of the radar and guessing the timing, it should have gone over me around 4:30-6. I might be able to make it tonight!

Edit again: Just checked outside, the rain is freezing... Let's see how this plays out.

Yeah, freezing rain = no good. Good news is that it looks like once you get a little south 35 looks to be somewhat clear. Who knows what happens after the sun goes down though.

Yeah, after the heavy stuff hits me, it'll prob be gone in a couple hours. If it looks clear and the roads aren't icy, I'll be game.

When the sun goes down, hopefully the roads don't glaze over. If I make it to Steve's, I'm sure he'll shelter me in his arms.

I'll give you a call if I leave tonight and I'm approaching the cities. Thanks for everything, especially offering me a place to crash for a night. Really appreciate it.

I saw a yellow Ferrari 360 today. If he can take it out on a shitty day like today, we can drive our Z's in the rain.

Awesome point. Looks like it's only raining in the cities, so rain is nothing.

Get off the computer and start driving!

If the wind keeps up, maybe it'll dry up the roads around here.
