I live in South Jersey, but last week I made the trip up and back on the NE Extentsion to Rochester,NY and nothing can be as bad as last week. The roads were very icy and there were major potholes resulting in a few travelers, including us, to have flat tires.

Hey John, I'll be driving up to the Poconos around 1:00 AM tonight. I saw that you have a long commute back to the station. Maybe you can update me on the road conditions so I know what to look forward to!
