We ended up with 23" here and drifting up to 40".
The wind is still blowing the shit around causing whiteouts and the roads are drifting shut.
As far as work goes, the entire fleet was shut down on Tuesday, only a few drivers worked yesterday and I was supposed to be one of them but, I ended up sick and called off. Today there are limited loads moving and I am not running due to late starting times since they need me to run early tomorrow. If I ran today I wouldn't be able to get the D.O.T. required 10 hours off between tours so I'll just eat up some PTO and call in by 3 today for an early (between midnight and 3am) load tomorrow.
As it was, I fought my way out of the driveway and went in to clear off my tractor before I called for a load. They told me nothing today and hadn't realized I came in. Kinda sheepishly they told me to head back home but I told them no big deal as I would need to clean the truck off anyway and better to get it done at 8 am today than tomorrow in the middle of the night.
