Rain/snow mix overnight, glad I stayed close to home because it sounds like people have been playing bumper cars all weekend in the Flint/Saginaw area.

My power came back on at 8:00AM just as my coffee was perking in the fireplace.   

I-69 was closed due to multiple accidents, no injuries reported

We had thunder storms with Lightning down this way, very interesting night last night.

Stormed like hell here. Wash away most of the snow and all of the salt on the roads. I can't wait for riding season

We got the rain too with a light and sound show. Still have some snow on the ground..... Getting anxious for the warm weather so I clean the inside of the Av and scrape the salt out, put on the other rims and tires, put the vent visors on.....oh yeah and the CAC club sticker

We have a foot of snow on the ground easy, most sidestreets have a mix of hardpack snow and standing water with temps hovering near freezing dropping to 11 so looks like more icy roads and wrecks mornings all week.

Can you say "potholes" ? They are only going to get worse, we're in a wicked freeze/thaw cycle and not much the road crews can do about it yet. My 275/16 BFGs are up to it.

Sure there is.......Keep them filled with snow and ice until they can fix them. Tjat's the only good thing about winter. The potholes get filled in

Light snow can hide a large pothole, I put a slight ding in a rim, flattened a tire and broke a shock on my '94 S10 pickup once. Barely felt the bump, the snow was so deep I didn't know the tire was flat until next morning. It aired up but broke a steel belt, sidewall bulge.

Most people slow down at RR track crossings in MI too, do that in other areas of the country you might get rear-ended. I usually rumble right over the tracks but try to hit the most even area.

You have your tires on the ground when you go over tracks?
