...tonight, into tomorrow... that's on top of the 8"-10" last Friday and the 6+ we had Sunday...
Spring seems an eternity away right now.

I love the snow. I love the cold. I love it when it's chilly out. I spend a lot of time outside in the winter.

BUT

I am tired of winter already! lol

I'm so ready for it to be top-down weather. 45 degrees is my cut-off. As soon as it hits that then the Boxster is getting a bath and we are going driving.

Unfortunately I don't see those temperatures in the next few weeks.

When I lived in Maryland my cutoff for having the top down was 40 albeit I was really bundled up.

But now in Florida the cutoff is around 60...the older I get the colder it seems to get.

Speaking of cold, the winter here has been cooler than normal although we are expecting low-mid 80s today - too bad the Boxster S is sitting somewhere in Finland waiting for a boat.

It was 62 Sunday. The box got a bath.

It's going to be 79 today. Guess what I drove to work.

I will say this, I sure picked the right year to take up snowboarding

I have been able to hit the slopes every weekend since Dec 9th !

I sure do miss driving the Boxster though

Come do a long weekend in UT! I was in waist-deep Alta pow yesterday, off to Brighton today. Apres ski will consist of beer and lamenting the loss of the Boxster for another month or so....

You know... I guess I do like the excitement of the snow though... I do have my Audi quattro with snow tires for winter... and that's a blast in the snow!!!

Sorry to hear that man. Moving south will solve that problem. I drove mine with the top down yesterday.

Yeah, about the same here. And to think I almost put the hard top on over the weekend.

Yeah I'm tired of snow too. We ski and enjoy the winter but every morning I see the Boxster covered in the garage and I'm ready for spring. Just waiting for a sunny, dry road day to take her out. Have not driven the Boxster since late November. And it's suppose to snow again tomorrow!!!
