[QUOTE="Soylent Grin, post: 359998, member: 13614"] Roughly about the same time you were having your ordeal in Burien, my wife and I were two up on our '07 FJR on I-5, coming back to FedWay from Southcenter. It was chilly, but the thermometer said 43, and everything was dry... ...and right before the Kent-Des Moines exit, in the space of about 90 seconds, the entire road was covered with little ice pellets. Completely covered. I turned on the flashers, slowed down to about 50, and my wife instinctively went very still. Endured this for about five minutes, making very little in the way of course corrections, then just as soon as it started, it stopped, and we came back into dry and clear road. So, yeah, the tale of two FJR's, only we had a happier ending. That was just a very strange weather cell, I'm sorry it took a victim. [/QUOTE]
