It was 41 yesterday. 40 is my lower limit for top down. So today I may have it down. Pics if so!

^agreed!^
That's exactly what I always say 
You can only take off so much before someone calls the police
There's nothing like taking in a big breath of ice cold 25-30 degree air on a brisk winter morning! Love it!

Hey, anyone pining for the snow should come and visit me. We have a prairie blizzard blowing in tonite that is expected to last for two days. Usually when they say blizzard it means the snow is moving horizontally and visibility is down to a few feet. However, because this is Winnipeg (as in, not Toronto), almost no-one will miss work, traffic will move as usual, and we will not require the assistance of the military. And, when it's over, I get to fire up my big-ass snowblower and go play. Woot!

87 degrees today... This is winter?? It's warmer now than what we get in the summertime. Did we go through a polar flip?

If you guys think its a tough winter in the US / Canada, just think of us poor people in Australia - Adelaide had 46*C (115*F) yesterday and over 50*C (124*F) for us in the centre Queensland a few days ago..... The bird and bat population dropping dead from heat exhaustion, bush fires, etc etc. The hot northerly winds bowing in from the Simpson Desert and Red Centre are the killers.
Too hot even to drive with the hood down.

Nope  I wouldn't do anything to the car that the next owner can't reverse. This is the one. The Sports Hex Luggage Rack - Classic Boot Racks
Rubber shoes and four rubbered-"claws" that grip around the lid.

So MLK day was warm enough to wash the salty Boxster. Forecast was for Snow the next day and super cold for the next couple of weeks. So I wasn't driving it soon. Bought a cover and put her in the garage and covered her up until the roads clear
This is by no means a Winter hibernation. First chance I get, the covers off and out the door I go
