The 4-5" was enough to put things at a standstill. A school bus was stuck in the curves loaded with kids and the curves were closed for two days as was the entrance going north on 101 at Tolovana. A second school bus was stuck on 101 between CB and Seaside and that road was closed while cars that slid off the slippery road were pulled out. Only the brave with 4-wheel drive and/or chains were on the road on Friday. EVOO guests all cancelled. Very few people were getting in or out of town. Lots of cancellation. Some employees stuck here.
