    Dude, I don't think it would be a good idea...the heavy snowfall warning is until the morning. Are you sure you can't borrow someone's car at least?

    Besides the fact you can look outside and see the snow and wetness,

    That was at 6:30pm and chances are its gotten worse since, the logical thing to do would be not drive a bike in this weather essp on the highway.

    Wouldnt chance it, unless you wanted to end up beside him.

    Get a friend/family to drive you out there.

    Dude, it was hard in my G35 with traction control at 60kms an hour. I would not chance it, however, i understand your situation.

    But I still wouldnt chance it.

    Well after a huge fight and after everything that was said on here he still left. He's very close to his uncle. His uncle isn't going to live very long 48-72 hours.

    This is his girlfriend by the way.
