From fb 285 traveler page an hour ago:

“ Good morning, As of 4am ( l want my hour back) the roads are pretty slick Shelton is snowpacked and the S curve before 43 is pretty snotty, 43 is of coarse unplowed and its snowing hard (hyperspace) which adds to the excitement, 285 is snowpacked and slushy 73 is in pretty good shape sanded anyway. Plows are out watch for splashback Happy Thursday”

“ 3:50 left Pine Junction: snowing hard ("sand" consistency). No Lane recognition. Definitely icy in spots like King's Valley and Windy Point. Able to travel around 45 miles an hour. Snow choppy like a south-facing, sun affected ski slope, but just wet when you get to 470. Took about 35 minutes (versus 20-25 minutes normally).”

“ Going down:
Slushy, snow packed, little icy, all of it. Worst is Indian hills. Make sure you have plenty of wiper fluid”

“ Left Pine at 6am and moseyed to Kipling on 285SB. Lane recognition hit and miss - choppy, hard packed snow with some icy delight underneath. Normal slippy-whippy culprits at Windy Point and the canyon. Snow seems to have stopped. Avg speed was 40-45mph...right around 470/70 exchange roads turned to just wet.
Recommended Denture Adhesive Strength Today: Medium.”
