Before you ask how the roads are, don't. Stay home and stay safe

511 PA definitely first choice, but also Waze or Google Maps can show you how many accidents are out there on your usual route. Once you see all the crash icons and red lines, you can safely commit to staying home. :-)

It says all the roads in Pittsburgh are peachy keen. Don't believe the hype.

Snow build up isn’t bad at all from this. If they can get the ice treated, then the wind is more manageable. Hope that can happen soon!!

Anyone know how things are looking on the side streets? I live in the north side. Shitty time to run out of diapers!!! 😬

part of the pittsburgh charm is that you can expect the subreddit to look more like nextdoor or a facebook group for grandmas.

Seriously. I had to convince 3 people above me just to approve OT so I could get to work before the weather turned this morning. They didn't want ro adjust me since they didn't want to do the work that I would miss later, so that's why it was OT.

The snow and ice is not melting because it’s so cold. People are driving way too fast.

Going to Gibsonia from CLE tomorrow early afternoon. Any news on the PA turnpike conditions? Is there a chance of the speed limit reductions lifted? This brutal storm gotta go away! Thanks for the 511pa link.

The snow and wind haven’t stopped. Huge crash on Ohio Turnpike near Sandusky today, two deaths reported. White-out conditions. Just totally brutal.

ETA:

SANDUSKY COUNTY, Ohio (WJW) — Four people are now confirmed dead after a pileup of dozens of cars along the Ohio Turnpike amid wintry conditions, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
The crashes happened Friday afternoon along Interstate 80 eastbound between Route 53 and State Route 4 in Sandusky County, near Groton Township and the Erie County line. At least 46 cars were involved. Just after 9 p.m. Friday, the patrol confirmed four people were killed.
Weather was a factor in the crash, the patrol later Friday.

PA turnpike from Ohio to Butler Valley was perfect. Ohio turnpike was OK, just not as good as PA. I-271 and I-480 in my area was sloppy and wet. Saw a few wrecks including a jackknifed trailer and smashed SUV.
