Dispatch just called with a load offer. He was not aware of the weather heading through Indiana Ohio and other places. Couldn't they get weather alerts on their cells or something.

Of course not but it does extend pu and del times. Some counties are shut down to. There is a difference between stopping business and adjusting. IMHO it should also affect price. Yes its bad.

Although challenging, bad weather is good for all of our businesses.
