For a change you did better than us Levi.
Forgot to add, I was driving home yesterday from work on 787 in the unoccupied middle lane at 50MPH. Traffic in both lanes left and right of me is going slower. All of a sudden, a Toyota Highlander starts turning into my lane without signaling. I lay on the horn and have very little time to take evasive action. I feel his car glancing off of the Outback I was driving. Come to a halt on the shoulder and check the car. Luckily no damage from what I could tell. He said his car was not damaged either. He seemed to be about my age and was apologetic. As mad as I was I didn’t have the heart to scream at him. Told him to be careful and use his turn signals the next time. Got back in the car and as I was headed behind him noticed him again changing lanes without signaling.
If only people checked mirrors and looked and signaled before they turned it’d be a much nicer job to drive on the roads.

Got about 3" of fluffy snow, didn't even break out the snowblower.
Crash on snowy roads last week near where I live and a BAD road that my daughter has to travel on to get back to college.
Route 101 crash

Probably about 6" of snow yesterday, and over a foot today. Roads are garbage.
Luckily, I'm off from work today, and with the plummeting temps, gusting winds, bad roads, and low visibility, I have a feeling I'll be off tomorrow too.
