    Mammoth getting blasted

    http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/roadinfo/us395

    its been white out conditions all day. Gale-force winds keep beating against the windows.

    There are car accidents all over. The 395 is closed from Lee Vining to Bridgeport and down to 1 lane at the Nevada state line.

    Overturned tractor trailer on the Sherwin grade south of Tom's Place.

    Be careful out there people. Them winds are vicious!

    once it all ends, erica = happy dance?
    The only thing worse than the feeling that you are going to die is the realization that you probably won't.

    oh hell yes.

    although, I must admit, getting down the mountain from work today was one of the scariest times I have had driving. The top gust at the top of the mtn today was 122 mph.

    It was like being in a snow hurricane. Took 30 minutes to dig out the Suby. There was a 5 foot drift stuck like a barnacle to the leeward side of my car. It was IN SANE! So many accidents. So many idiots driving without lights on and 2WD without chains.

    but I made it back alive.

    The wind is un-fucking believable.

    The BRO's will be happier than pigs in shit when the wind goes away and the trees beckon.
