Lincoln, NE to San Diego-Warm Weather ASAP
I will be driving to San Diego for New Years and I want to get into warm weather asap, but not going too far out of my way. Would appreciate suggested routes to keep me warm.

With the forecast for the next week or so in consideration (SNOW -- and lots of it in the Colorado mountains), consider dropping all the way down I-25 to New Mexico and then taking I-40 west. In Arizona, you could consider dropping down to Phoenix and taking I-10 the remainder of the way. Though further in distance, this would accomplish your goal of staying warm. The LAST thing you want it to take I-70 west from Denver and get stuck with a road shutdown due to weather. That said, it's all about timing. IF you time it right, you could make the I-70 run. Much depends on what you're driving and how comfortable you are with mountain driving in the snow.
