Well, usually we import our snow from China, but the lead content has been so high lately that we're going back to domestic sources.

Almost 4:30AM in Northern Colorado, couldn't sleep, checked outside and its -3 and still dropping!

Back to positive digits on the thermometer. Around 3C, massiva gray cloud cover. No rain yet though.

'Tis raining already. Projected to turn to snow in a few hours. Where am I again??

Verencat · 12-04-2009, 08:09 AM

Something is seriously wrong, because we're 4 degrees over freezing point, and it's expected to get warmer.
Did Canada and Texas switch place?

If we didn't, could we please do that now?

I once again discovered that a BMW 650 makes a much more efficient snow saucer than vehicle even in less than an inch of snow. Time to put it up for the season and rely on th Jeep to get us around...

Snowtires anyone?

But I guess unlike us you don't have a law that says you have to have snowtires?

:how does snow get tired? : (deep thinking minds enquire)

pshrynk · 12-04-2009, 09:09 AM

Snow tires on a 650i would be like training wheels on a Harley Soft Tail. We just put her up for the winter with a trickle charger in the Aux Power slot.

Well, I was wrong. That was sleet that was falling which has since turned to snow. I didn't have too much trouble getting to work but it's really starting to come down now and am told that by this afternoon we could have some real accumulation. Anyway, I took a quick photo on my way to my office so we can compare it with later.
