It’s not much, and it took its time getting here, but it finally snowed!
ETA: Dang it Pip Bip, you got me by a few seconds.

It’s snowed here already this winter, but apparently it snowed again last night. Went to bed at midnight after flying back, woke up a few minutes ago (7:15 here) and SURPRISE. So I went back to bed.

we’re about just under half of what we’re going to get today. Thank the lord for 4x4 and winter tires.

My Blizzaks are on their second season and getting a solid workout trying to keep my little FWD hatch on the road.

We’ve had snow this season, but this is the first snowfall that stuck. Where I’m from, it’s not much snow, but it’s a lot for where I live now and it’s been coming down all day.

Well, they greatly improve snow traction but they’re not miracle workers. The roads here are turning into that “dry slush” and even on my truck the ABS and traction control are coming into play pretty frequently. I can’t imagine how bad it would be if I still had the garbage Goodyear RT/Ss on it.

They felt miraculous when I was driving through eight inches of wet snow in the UP last year, but I also delivered pizzas on them last year, so they’re down to the first set of wear bars, which means their standing snow capability is significantly diminished.
