    Amazon DA here, on my way back from Springfield I hopped on I90 and saw this, luckily I was going back to Erie so I missed all the traffic but it was heart breaking seeing all those vehicles in the median and so many people just stranded in the snow in there cars. Stay safe yall 🙏🏽

    5 FEET OF SNOW & MORE -2024**
    Over the heads of all I meet
    Falls winter's life giving snow.
    Upon the rooftops and the streets
    Filling the sky and earth below.
    Dancing, swirling, skimming along,
    Like the snows of yesteryears.
    There's lots of ice on the windows
    As my lashes freeze over with tears.
    It's so cold; it's too cold to snow
    Yet the snow continues to fall.
    The land is covered blanket white
    As the winter winds wail their call.
    There's a red-hot fire awaiting me
    That will thaw out my every part.
    It's not the glow of a fireplace
    But the love that dwells in my heart.

    The melted snow will freeze and creates spots of so called black ice, only when you drive slow and not hit the brakes you can drive/slide straight over it. But because drivers in front of you suddenly hit the brakes you can do nothing but slide as your brakes abs is trying to help you but you are not stopping because it is too slippery and you (and almost all i can see ) drive too fast to do anything. So adapt your speed and leave a big gap in front of you and try not to hit the brakes and stay focussed. With a white out snow best find a parking spot cause you will not see what happens in front of you.
