I notice that if we have extensive "storm team coverage" of impending winter weather, the number of crashed is reduced, people seem to use their heads. Now, we are getting mundane, inch at a time storms, which are just as slippery, and people are crashing all over. An inch of wet snow is as slippery as two or more...

Washtenaw was also a sheet of ice between Hewitt and Carpenter. What in the heck was the road commission doing between 8pm last night, when the snow stopped accumulating, and 8am this morning?

Packard was a sheet of ice between Hewitt and Carpenter. The conditions were treacherous to say the least.
