Traveling northbound Interstate 5, just south of Magic Mountain.
00:05
The interstate is all shut down, big accident, just north of Magic Mountain over.
00:15
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
00:17
So you're stuck in traffic.
00:19
I'm on the two,
00:21
shifting the two-hand, going to Pasadena, going on to the one town.
00:27
I'm going to get off in town for a minute.
00:29
But yeah, go ahead, back to you.
00:31
This name here is (name withheld).
00:33
I'm going to go under a concrete bridge for a minute, so give me a couple minutes and I'll come back.
00:47
Hey, Roger that, (name withheld).
00:48
I'll be standing behind.
00:50
Hey, it looks like you are.
00:56
Okay, I'm out at this point.
00:58
Go ahead.
01:07
Hey (name withheld) here.
01:09
The name is (name withheld).
01:10
Yeah, just traveling north,
01:12
headed back to work, working in Central Valley in Modesto.
01:17
Yeah,
01:18
just stuck in traffic,
01:20
about the rain.
01:22
It's people not knowing how to drive in the rain, and apparently there's a host on the CB.
01:29
Truck accident up here somewhere north of the Magic Mountain on the interstate.
01:33
So I'm doing about five miles an hour right now.
01:36
Over.
01:42
Ah, I'm so sorry to hear that.
01:44
So you gotta go over the Grapevine and stuff.
01:46
It's open, I guess, right? There's no snow or anything? Go ahead.
01:57
No snow. I was checking the weather earlier.
02:00
I don't think it got cold enough to get any snow.
02:03
I did,
02:05
we were speaking with some truck drivers earlier,
02:08
just coming up the grade here into Santa Clarita.
02:13
Nobody's reporting any snow, so it's still raining though.
02:17
It's on and off rain up here in the Santa Clarita anyways,
02:22
and I believe there's going to be more rain into the Central Valley.
02:25
So it should be a fun, fun, precarious drive, as always, in the rain on the interstate.
