Heading West

[Alabama Potter]

DH and I are leaving early April heading to GC thru MS, up to Memphis to AR, OK, TX, NM AZ then Denver, then Kansas to WWI museum in KC, then central Missouri back to MS so will be crossing the Big muddy twice in the space of 6 weeks. Does anyone know of road/flooding issues on this route? Only concern right now is Memphis and maybe central MO. Thanks!

I40 looks ok W bound out of Memphis. There is construction NW of Little Rock. I believe that is ramp only. Hwy condition is pretty good. Morgan exit has fuel stops that are easy access. Conway has limited fuel with easy access. Have safe trip and enjoy.

Central is pretty good. NW and the western part of MO. I-29 is closed at St. Joe MO and North to Glenwood IA. It will be for some time considering the damage that was done to 29. Just keep an eye on NE Kansas, NW Missouri, SE Nebraska and SW Iowa. I-80 east and west is fine...maybe some construction...but it's that time of year again.
