This video was taken on 12-18-09 as a major winter storm impacted North Carolina. This was just south of Greensboro as I was headed southbound on US-220 (future I-73). This video shows the dangerous road conditions with upwards of 5" of snow on the road. At the same time I hit 2" per hour snowfall rates as I neared the transition zone to sleet and then rain. As far as I could tell no plow hit this section of road at all prior to myself driving on it. 2nd half of the video shows a better field of view and more can be seen.

  • Great stuff. 5 *'s!  Will you be posting a new one soon?

  • Unfortunately no. I didn't get to the real good stuff up in VA. If I had more of a budget I would have. At my house it was all rain.
