I commute from Olathe to Warrensburg and back 5 days a week, yesterday round trip and today's drive in were little different than every other days. I would have been ok with any one or all of my 4 kids getting on a bus and going anywhere within the state this weekend to compete/perform. As it was 3 of them were denied that opportunity. The forecast and it's forecasted impact were wildly wrong because specifically in the case of freezing rain the variables,if off by 1-2 degrees, change the whole prediction. Group think is never good. This was group think at its worst. The way DOTs prepare for weather events such as this has come a long way since we were kids and there needs to be more faith in their ability to keep the roads clear and passable. It is a shame. If we always erred on the side of caution we wouldn't let our kids play sports! Quit making excuses for stupidity.
