I'd go for it too Bobert. I mean, what's the worst that can happen besides you get stuck in a no tell motel, waiting for the weather to break so you can drive on through to your destination?

Sure, take water, munchies, flashlights, mosquito repellent, whatever you feel you must have (always a personal list!) to hold you over for a day or two. But hey--like these storms don't last a week, ya know? If you make it there before it hits and there is a safe place to weather the storm, why not?

Man who don't take a chance ain't got one.
