I may drive to kingman then across I40 to I 35 north. Weather seems to be turning into crap across the I 80 corrodor wednesday through friday. Accorording the the weather search I did I 40 looks clear and warmer. (no heat) Anyone live along the route that can shed any light on this for me? My map search shows about 200 miles further.

80 across Wyomin SUX anyway. Go south. Although you're welcome to stop through here again. Weather isn't looking great though. Scattered showers every afternoon.

In Flagstaff tonight it is expected to get down to 27-35, but no precipitation in the forecast.
Tomorrow it is supposed to be partly cloudy and 54-64.

We had rain again today, but it looks like the storm has moved East and you'll be following behind it, but be ahead of the next storm which is supposed to hit us on Thursday.

Gallup is supposed to be 66 and partly cloudy tomorrow. Albuquerque will be 75 and partly cloudy.

Flagstaff is the high point on I-40 at 7,000 feet. Winslow is already about 2,000 feet lower and thus warmer so you aren't up in the cold country for long.

I'll pm you my phone in case you need to call me.

Thanks Mike, I was looking forward to stopping to see you again. But I would be riding in the rain all the way home.

I took down your number Ernie. I'll call when I'm close.

Cool, Rick. I sent you another pm with my cell number. Now that I know your schedule that will be the best way to reach me.

It was my pleasure to escort you back to Vegas.
Have a safe trip the rest of the way home.
Tell Sandy to call me when she is in town next week.

If you decide to drop down to 70, you can stay at my place. I'm two hours west of Kansas City.

I'll PM you my cell phone #.
