We are expecting snow on the last day of October here

Good thing I just bought a set of used rims with snow tires on them for my wife’s truck.

Also, any one have an idea on how hard it is to lift a Corolla/Matrix because I have an idea ? The rear should be easy, but how far can the front go before causing issues?

While these wheels are for my wife’s vehicle, it did give me this idea. I have another set of snows on 17" rims for my F150 that I still haven’t figured out the charging issue on. The Matrix/Corolla had 17" rims available.

My parent’s are already getting snow where they live.

I mean, weather is crazy in central Nebraska, but this is still very early.

Does watching Die Hard movies count as getting ready for winter?

Yea, it’s not unusual to see a dusting in October or early November, but anything more than an inch is unusual to see before the end of November. So tonight I will be cutting my lawn one last time, putting outdoor furniture away for the season, and getting my snowblower out and running.

I mean, that’s one method.

All I’m hoping for is that the rain holds off on Halloween so we can go full bore on the annual display.

Beyond that, I’m not ready for winter weather either, but I can roll with whatever t he gods give me as long as they grant me this one thing.

Are you one of those families that basically has a haunted house set up in their front yard?

I started thinking out the lyrics to “let it snow” in response to your post , and wondered why they were so familiar until I remembered I’d watched Die Hard 2 on Friday.

I assume it’s probably the same system that will be hitting us

I just checked here and they are announcing 10-15 inches here Friday.

I threw my “used wheels with 1 season old snow tire” I just bought on my wife’s car on Sunday, too! No definite snow in the forecast yet, though

Kinda. For 18 years running I’ve done a scene in the yard, always with a theme. As my daughter has gotten older, she has taken up the mantle, and we work together. This year’ s will be “The Dead & Breakfast”, her idea. There are no community prizes, and we would do it even if no one ever noticed, but many of the neighbors look forward to seeing what twisted stuff we come up with.

Sounds fun. Post a pic to oppo once you’re done, I’d love to see it.

Oh for sure. I posted in the past too, but it gets lost in all the other Halloween posts. We have a pretty good selection of quality weirdness to choose from on Oppo.

Don’t get me wrong, I love winter too. I’m just not quite ready for it
