Here in West Tennessee, we have about a half inch of ice on the roads which is covered with about that same amount of sleet which is covered with about two inches of snow. In the areas where no vehicles have been, the traction is pretty good. However, on the more traveled roads where vehicles have made ruts down to the ice layer, the sleet and snow has been pushed out and frozen together to make the ruts very hard to get out of.
I have driven on lots of snow and, with the exception of ice from frozen rain (black ice), these are the most wreck inducing conditions I have been on. Thank goodness that I don't live where this is a regular occurrence.
I am home to stay until I can get the doors on my 4WD truck thawed.
