33 ain’t shit yet. Just took the whole thing at 65 except when the 5MPH retards ventured into the left lane, and never slipped. Downtown, on the other hand, is a little hairy down by the water. No visibility and a few inches on the roads.

Was in an hour early, thanks Steveo for the idea 😃

So, guess I’ll try dipping out around 3-4ish, less traffic and moar daylight.

PS, visibility in OP is not bad.

i cant wait for sunday. they way they are making the weather sound, sunday is going to be more snow and blowing snow. i get to work that day at holiday which im wondering how well the 219 will be.

last year i lucked out and went with my father in his explorer and the 219 closed. we almost got stranded then with how bad conditions were. hoping that this time being in my sweet malibu, that i wont end up having to go any other way than the 219

It just started around 8 in Fredonia and was consistent all the way to OP. Not particularly bad though.

Just another day in WNY

That’s what she said.

Remember that news anchor(female) that asked the weatherman, “Where is that 6” you promised me last night"?
