I lost power for about 4 hours, all roads coming in and out of my house were shutdown because they couldn't clear the roads fast enough.

I figured the worst was yet to come. I had heard 24 inches was expected but I didn't know the time frame, and I had to get to North Dakota so I just hoped for the best. There was a ton of blowing snow across the highways fucking up the visibility but other than that I got through ok. I fucking hate trying to get through the 90/94 during rush hour so I made sure I got there early enough to not have to deal with it.
The night before Indiana and Ohio got blasted with an ice storm. When I left the hotel in Indiana yesterday morning my truck was encased in a huge sheet of ice that took me forever to get through...
