Hey all, if you don't have to be somewhere this morning, stay home. I 35 is a sheet of ice from
Hillsboro to Waco. And I'm pretty sure beyond those places also. I'm in West and 35 is almost shut
down, very few vehicles are out.

It's totally dry between Dripping Springs and Austin so it must all be up north.  My normal commute in on 290 and up Mopac was super easy, wish traffic was like this every day.

But I agree, if it's icy in your area use caution and be safe.

Yeah, crazy stuff here in weird town.....
Good thing the boss texted us all last night saying not to come in till 10.....
I bucked the odds and came in at eight, defying all hazards...
just look at this ice in our parking lot:






I know it's worse up north, so y'all be safe up there....the total lack of traffic this morning was a huge plus though!

I'm about an hour northwest of Austin.  6pm last night they announced 2 hour delay for schools starting this morning, before they knew for sure what was going to happen. Then at 6 am this morning they canceled school for the day.  It was icy out, had snow/sleet in the yard at the time.  But now the sun is out bright and everything has melted.  Turned into a wasted day, stuck at home with the kiddo due to no school.

This +1...  No problems between the PVille area and N. Central Austin...  But your YMMV if you are outside town.

My 20 minute drive to work in Dallas turned into an hour this morning, and I didn't leave till about 8:30. Lots of packed snow on the road.

About 10:30 we headed back out to check our other locations, lots of slush starting to break up.

0530 trip to DFW airport was a breeze, with 4wd Durango. fresh snow good traction.  Getting to work at 730, much worse, snow packed to ice, morons all over the place. Jeep and I laughed

I considered not coming in and instead going around pulling people out, but tight schedule this week...
