So much for any test drives this weekend...
I'm 38 and I don't EVER remember seeing it snow and blow like this before. I'm going to have to wait another week @!$!^@%

its like 10:20pm, just came in the house, its horrible out there

on the other hand: box took it like a champ with no traction control, summer tires, no heated seats...it warmed right up and ice started melting very fast off of windows, when i got home there is a big parking lot and i just had to take it for some slip and slide(i was gonna do one or 2 slides, ended up being there for 20 mins powersliding and 'drifting it yo dawg" hehehe

but yea, its crap out there

Hi,

********************, I live right on the Mississippi River separating Mpls. and St. Paul , on the St. Paul side. I haven't been able to see the other side since about 3pm cause the snow is falling/blowing so hard (forecast 8" by morning), and we're forecast to have snow all week.

But, I do have to admit that the worse winters I ever spent were several of the ones I went through in Chicago. I remember Jan. 10 in 1982, the ambient temp on Michigan Ave. was -26°F. I had to go 5 blocks north to Superior Street (Walgreens) and the Windchill was -84°F. The only part of me exposed was my eyes (Storm Coat, Balaclava, gloves, etc). When I got to Walgreens, my eyes felt like they were frozen... I took a Cab back...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Looks like we got 5" overnight. About 7pm there was a huge flash of lightning and then it started snowing like a mother. It looked like 3 of the 5" fell before 9pm.

But I'm happy we're getting another blast of winter. My buddies and I are leaving on Wed for 4 days of golf in Temecula, CA (50 mi ne of SD). Can't wait.
