Our roads were mostly okay by Saturday afternoon. I drove to the gym that afternoon. I drove to work yesterday and took my bike route home. One neighborhood with tall trees had some bad spots, so I avoided it this morning. Since we're supposed to get above 40 today I think those spots will be fine for the ride home.
However, schools are closed again today, so I'm guessing there are some bad spots somewhere. This made traffic better for me.
