Anybody care to guess whether the roads will be in bad shape I-91 north of the split (with 89)?

This storm isnt all that major, and they do a great job in general on 89, I wouldnt worry.
Mixed showers have been brief and light so far but the fun is pivoting into SVT right now--expecting some bursts of mixed showers to snow squalls to liven things up. I'm sure DOT road crews have been able stay ahead of shower activity this morning but heavier showers/squalls this afternoon could be overwhelming in many spots. We'll see.

Winn, what's the time frame of the heavy squalls? Late afternoon/early evening? Or late into the night?

My wife travels N-91 to S-89 everyday and today was no different. We got some freezing rain/sleet etc over night and had a glaze on everything, but the roads were treated early and often and she said the roads were just wet, nothing major.

Snow is good, i don't think vt does remove snow as good as they use to on I89
I beleive they changed from a "clear roads" policy to a "safe road" policy a few years back.
Does VT brine their Interstates or do they stick with plow-and-sand? NH DOT still tries to brine parts of theirs but that requires a lot of lead time. It was likely appropriate for last night's/this mornings showers--we'll see how it holds up today.

Roads are fine. Just watch for black ice after sundown.
We have everything this am. Sno hail moderated rain all changing every 15. Mins.
Clear at base clouded at summit -heavy. Temps 32. All day. Winds calm. Best trails are ungroomed and woods.
Groomed trails arre hardpack with crust of ice. I might as well fall on concrete.
Having fun. Club paetee at four.

Are you drunk posting from the Bear Den again?
How much fell today? I forecasted another 4-7" of snowfall today--wondering if I should've gone more.
