We awoke to a smattering of snow. Then a huge storm hit just before the evening rush hour. Stephen had planned to work late to get some project finished but then decided at 6pm that he should leave. He stayed an extra 20 minutes and then got on the road. After 2 hours he had made it about 3 miles. He stopped at the Redmond Town Center to see if he could get a room at the Marriott but they were booked solid! He now has decided to go get some dinner and will try again to head home.
It took Ash's dh 3 hours to get home. One hour of it was walking though because he finally had to abandon his car about 2 miles (and three huge hills) from home. He has graciously offered to take their truck out with chains on to get Stephen. I haven't heard back yet from anyone to see if Stephen has taken him up on that offer.
The biggest problem is that the temperatures are dropping so the slick roads are going to turn icy. I hope he gets home tonight!
