The storm that hit Chicago also left 8-10" of snow on Omaha. Last night I finished up my 2nd tour of snow blowing. Got into the warmth of my house when I heard a vehicle having trouble just up the hill from me. I look out the window and see a 4wd full size Bronco was trying to back down the hill to take another run when it backed into some deep snow. No one was helping this poor soul. I still had my heavy clothes on, so I went out to push. The guy's wife came down to help and another guy from somewhere did too. We got him going but the snow on my street was so deep I think he left his SUV at the bottom of the hill until the plow came by. Anyway, the storm allowed me to meet some new neighbors. They all asked where I lived and when I pointed to my house, they all knew - I'm the Porsche guy. They were all concerned that I wasn't driving it around in this snow. I assured them that Punkin was clean and resting comfortably in the garage.

Keeping a small shovel in your car will be one of the best things you can do. It will allow you to get out of many snowy situations.
