Heading Up To See Dad, a little help please

[Ohiofinlander]

I'm planning on traveling to see Dad for his 98/th birthday. Would like to travel Friday, 01/18/19. Leaving northern Ohio and arriving in Virginia, MN that same evening. I would appreciate any inclement weather forecasts along the way. The great lakes always seem a little tricky for the weather people to get a good grasp of in advance.

I can pass on any birthday wishes if you'd like. Dad is one of our many great WWII Vets!

Tell your dad we said " HAPPY BIRTHDAY " Plus a big SALUTE for his service and sacrifice! We are leaving also on Fri. From Erie,Pa.to Florida. Weather should be good by then! Taken I-79 south to Beckley Va. towards Savannah Ga. for a couple days before we head into Fl. Pulling Hummingbird RB.

Will you be checking messages during your drive, or looking for an update a day or two in advance?
I'm in St.Paul, and my family is in Hibbing.

I will check each day prior to, and also on the way. May leave a day early if needed. This is always a can't miss event each year. Mom was born and raised in Hibbing.
