Yes, it’s true. I had to clean ice off the Infiniti this morning. It was 29°F out this morning and the car was a bit iced over. And on Wednesday it’s supposed to be 75 out. What the hell mother nature, take your triflin’ ass back from where ya came.

There is snow on my lawn right now. And on the leaves of deciduous trees.

Fuck that noise. It was blowing snow pretty heavy yesterday but it just wasn’t quite cold enough to stick.

It’s that fun part of the season where it’s freezing at night and the morning, but warm during the day.

I thought that’s how it was going to end up here to, but it dropped from 36 to 20 pretty quickly, and ended up with a half-inch over everything. I was promised 2 more months until winter, dammit.

I had to de-ice, and only barely got started. I’ve been limping on a battery that’s over a decade old, and every winter it gets a little bit more asthmatic. I think this is the winter that will do it in.

My car has a brand new alternator and a battery that I bought brand new in march. It still likes to die on me in the mornings until it warms up. Not sure what makes it so temperamental.

Yup. Same here. I was glad to take the “new” beater Focus to work, because it warms up quickly and my BRZ doesn’t. My lady also had de-icer Rain-X washer fluid, which thrilled me. It’s time to go get the snow tires put on, just in case, so that I can leave the fun tires on my BRZ for warm afternoons just a little bit longer.

Meh, kind of hot here... Still wearing tshirts, shorts and sandals every day. 75 to 80 degrees fahrenheit every day here. Actual temperatures similar to what you get in San Diego this time of the year lol

I left Montreal last year though (in Japan now)... it’s 30 degrees fahrenheit there now haha. Leaving montreal: BEST.DECISION.EVER :)

In my case, my battery struggles to turn over a diesel motor fast enough before being completely spent. Less about staying running, more about starting in the first place.

I refused to clean the frost off my windshield this morning - out of pure spite for nature. I let my defroster handle it.

I’ll have 5+ months of having to scrape ice off of my windshield once November hits, I fucking refuse to start in October.

Man... why the hell don’t they just cut 4 seasons down to two... summer, and the rest of the year. Technically winter occurs twice per calendar year, and where I live, it can snow 3 out of 4 seasons of the year. I’ve seen it start in late September and I’ve seen snow in may as well. A little much no?
