When should I leave for MD?

It's still snowing a little bit, and all reports indicate that the roads are a total disaster. I'll either leave in a few hours or leave VERY early in the morning and get to my destination late tomorrow morning. I do appreciate any and all thoughts and advice.

Keep in mind that Nick probably won't show up until 11 o'clock anyway.

Don't be a wimp. Go brave the weather. In your rear wheel drive sports car.

I would wait until the roads are somewhat cleared and then just go. The storm can't last forever. I would also have blankets, a candle, water and some other cold weather emergency type stuff (just in case) and I would drive more slowly than normal.

Logan is barely operating right now. Thanks to the snow, my father gets to spend an extra night in beautiful Chester, VA.
