You've experienced snow delays, but...

sun glare delays? Yes. Sun glare delays. Apparently, this stopped traffic coming into Pittsburgh this morning on I-79, as well as causing bump-and-go on 705 and other troublesome spots. This freak of nature, act of God, whatever you want to call it, was part of the daily traffic alerts on the local news this morning. It was mentioned very casually, as if sun glare delays were an ordinary occurrence in the surrounding area. I know this is not true because as a devoted sun worshiper, I've kept track of all the sun's appearances since mid-November and I could count all of these on one hand. Ok, maybe two if I didn't exaggerate. Anyway, be careful out there and, above all, don't forget the shades.
