Traveling to the west coast

posted 3rd Jan
My dad and I drove from my home in the San Diego area last month to my parents house in St. Louis. We hit snow in the mountains in Flagstaff, AZ, it was pretty scary because my car isnt ideal for that. My mom and I will be driving back next week and I'd like to avoid the snowy mountains, if possible. I was looking on google but the only routes have me going the exact same way back or through CO.

My husband and I took the 10 from FL to TX to CA back in '07, we could go that way but I was wondering if the mountains down there get any snow? Are we just stuck hitting them? I know if we go through TX on the 10 it will add a day or two to our trip and I'm ok with that, I just want to be safe.

TIA

What about when I hit AZ though, TX and OK were great on the way. It was AZ that was kinda scary.

The mountains when you get into CA on the 8 (from 10) just got tons of snow this past week... and those hills & mountains are STEEP- like, you climb to about 5000m before going back down the other side...
And that's the way we got here (FL to CA on the 10).

So yeah.. there's gonna be snow either way.

Thats what I figured, and the mountains in AZ might be good practice for the ones we'll hit in CA I remember going through them on the way out here in the rain and fog. That wasnt too bad. Out by Julian and all that.
