And one bus skids off the road, flips, and kids die and you can imagine the reaction.  I’m with old Ben Franklin - an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.  And I’m with WHFan.  Who cares what

i was wondering this same thing last night. i dont know how difficult it is finding refs for the game if you changed it to an earlier time in the day or what all is involved in changing the schedule l

Sure we'd adjust and learn to how to deal with this weather if it was the norm for us. It isn't.

Lots of people getting out on the roads who aren't used to driving in ice and snow is a recipe for disaster. I believe central Texas has already had 145 car accidents. Some of those accidents were serious.

Be safe and be smart. We can go back to wearing shorts in January by the end of the week.

I think they will have to reschedule Wednesdays games. Its only getting colder and the roads will continue to freeze today. They probably won't thaw out until tomorrow afternoon if they do at all.

 

Possible but if it thaws and they can get them in, I am sure they will sinc it’s district games.

You are right. Mid January, 80% of the USA needs to be shut down - right now.

Maybe Florida and southern California can stay open.

Just can't risk it.

Many games postponed tonight, then rescheduled for Wednesday are now being postponed again.

Not surprised.  Bostwick said it should get up to 35-36 tomorrow afternoon, but if the water is still on the road, could be bad again tomorrow night.

I guess you can copy and paste from millions of pics off the internet to try to prove a point. 

Next time, at least try to get a pic of a bus in ice or snow. That ground looks warm and bone dry. Maybe that driver fell asleep or was drinking alcohol?

It was ice.  Sorry you can’t see it.   But don’t let that stop your nonsense. 

Here you go sport:

I am agreeing with you. All sports should be cancelled every time it rains, too. After all, hydroplaning can occur with just 1/16 inch of moisture on the road. Shut it all down!

I spent some significant time in Iron Mountain Michigan for a few winters. The high would be -10. Its not the snow. You can clear that out no problem and people have snow tires to handle what falls on the ground.But when it rains or up there when it gets above freezing for a few hours it turns the slush and melt water into black ice. Nobody drives on that. Its dangerous.

For an event that only happens once or twice a decade its alright to be a little cautious. We're not used to this stuff.

As for the rain that's just a few minutes or a few hours (hurricanes notwithstanding) so that's not even a good analogy.

Look at the bright side we'll be in the 70s this weekend. And we may get two straight days of basketball. Its a win in my book.
