Daily News: Keep Tire Studs On

We’ve always been fans of common sense, so warnings reminding Washington drivers that they must remove their snow tires by today even though there’s plenty of snow on the ground seemed silly. Heavy snow fell in the Cascades over the weekend, and the rolling roads of the Palouse were slick and dangerous Sunday morning because of snow, ice and wind. In fact, there was a 10-mile stretch of U.S. Highway 195 south of Pullman that was closed for three hours because of jackknifed trucks and cars sliding off the road. Snow fell off and on all day in Moscow on Tuesday, and there’s a forecast of rain and snow showers through Friday. It just makes sense to keep those studded tires on/Sandra Kelly, Moscow-Pullman Daily News. More here .
