Hey Bill, Happy New Year!
We did a roaring trade in Snow Chains, Cables and Flares here in Medford
today, the I-5 across the Siskous has been closed for 48 hours, and another 5
feet
of snow is forecast...with colder winds and freezing fog. Suggest that you
stay in the Pacific for a while longer!
Don't know what coditions are like farther north?
Regards
Lion
