> can thus imagine that it has or will soon be snowing at LP.

Maybe, though I remember a storm in '97 when it dumped two feet on Albany and there was *nothing* in Great Barrington, just a little bit east.

Ah yes, I remember that as well.  That was the year of many accidents, at least three that I know of, including one I was in (as a passenger, not a driver) near Albany.

Anyone have any suggestions on the best way to get to Placid from Buffalo?  I know it's shorter taking 81N through Watertown, but I'm scared about the forecast up there.  Weather.com keeps changing the forecast everyday and the latest one seems to say "wintry mix," which doesn't sound like something I want to drive in.  I'm going to be pressed for time on Friday (can't leave until my midterm ends at noon), so I'm looking for the fastest route that will get me there in one piece.  Thanks for your help!

Don't go through Watertown. It adds over a half hour to the trip. Get off 81 at the Fort Drum exit.
This is your life and it's ending one minute at a time.

Weather update: I have no room to pack my boots, so expect a foot of icy slush to coat the roads throughout the entire weekend.

(I am, however, wearing my heavy, Oregonproof coat, so it should be sunny.)

Geez, man, wear the boots.  Have you forgotten the first and most uncomfortable rule of travel (wear everything you can)?

As of approximately 11:00pm Wednesday, the forecast for the entire route from Ithaca through Syracuse-Watertown-Lake Placid is calling for all rain. I know some had mentioned they would prefer snow to rain
but. . .when it comes to driving, we'll take the rain over the white stuff any day.

It can rain on the drive up, then snow the whole time we're there, then miraculously melt Sunday morning.   How's that?
