Grapevine, CA

Can you say "blizzard" in the Grapevine?

Yep.  Tonight is a total mess on the main roadway that connects Southern and Central California as the famed Grapevine is shut down in both direction just outside of Santa Clarita due to "blizzard like" conditions.  Literally thousands of cars are jammed on the 5 Freeway in both directions just north of Los Angeles.

Here is the official "advisory" that has just been issued by the California Highway Patrol and the California Transportation Department (CalTrans):

I 5 

    [IN THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AREA] 
    IS CLOS
ED FROM 3 MI NORTH OF THE JCT OF SR 126 /AT PARKER ROAD/ 
(LOS ANGELES CO) TO THE LOS ANGELES/KERN CO LINE /THE GRAPEVINE/ - DUE TO SNOW 
- MOTORISTS ARE ADVISED TO USE AN ALTERNATE ROUTE 


I love that last note.  "Use an Alternate Route."  Ahhh. 

There is NO ALTERNATE ROUTE. Your stuck in the snow.

Ahhh.  Caltrans.  Gotta love them jokesters.
