It was very disturbing. Years ago when I lived near Seattle there was unexpected snow. On an S-curve outside Seattle a similar occurrence happened. I was in Seattle and was trying to get home. This was about 2 in the morning. I think I had met with an ...ahem... 'friend' earlier in the evening. I may have stayed in town to eat dinner afterwards. By the time I was ready to leave, I had no idea if it had been cleared up yet as all the radio station just kept repeating the same story. I took an alternate way home using backroads that I never would have known how to do without using GPS. I think I ended up on part of the original Pacific Coast Highway that had been decommissioned when I-5 was built. It probably took me 2 hours to get the 35 miles home due to the unfamiliar terrain and snow and ice. I think I also ended up getting a ticket from a red light camera after inadvertently going thru an intersection-due to the stop and go I was having to do from the snow and ice. Thank gosh Texas outlawed them around 2020 or 2021, or I'd have an ongoing collection of tickets from them-not on purpose-just happens from time to time.
