Got a question for all of you in eastern MA, as I have work tonight in Milford and am debating whether to cancel. How snowy/icy was 290 and 495(south)? Think it'll clear or improve by 3PM?




Having just traveled 290 and then 495 (North, not South), here is my report.

With snow tires (and I believe you have them), you should have ZERO problems. Even if you don't have snow tires, the middle lane was fine for nearly any vehicle.

There was enough of a path in the left lane for me to maintain about 45 mph safely. Just remember, use overpasses to switch between lanes. There's less of a snow rut. I imagine you'll be fine tonight too.
