How do y’all think I-40 will be on Monday in terms of travel? Obviously this could be a huge storm but how well is it usually handled? I need to be traveling west on I-40 Monday morning from black mountain

well I guess this is goodness news for those of us chasing from the south. Looks like we can go to Asheville and get hammered. That’s a lot better roads and infrastructure compared to other places further north we were considering. Hope it holds.

I’m thinking about heading up to the Banner Elk area this weekend from Alabama. Here’s my question for you locals - traditionally, how will the roads be Monday in that area? I would have to go home Monday. Granted I have a Wrangler Rubicon that is more than capable. Just not wanting to get in a situation where I can’t get back. I’ve never had an issue in snow, even deep snow. Ice however is a different story.

I’ll be chasing as well most likely, assuming I can get back home Monday. We usually take the Jeep and ride out a storm in the mountains every year or two. Driving up from Alabama. Would like to stay as close to home as possible so currently thinking about the Waynesville area. Went to Banner Elk last time and although awesome that’s another couple of hours on the drive. Anyone have any other location recommendations?
