2 FT OF SNOW A WEEK AGO - ALL GONE & 55 DEGREES TODAY!!!
Last weekend, Long Island, NY where I live and drive, had a MAJOR BLIZZARD and broke the record for snow totals set back in 1978...we had over 2 ft of snow in one 24 hr period!!!...
I'm sure you saw all the photos posted in the Regional Section of the forum for NY/NJ/PA/CT with members' cars buried in the snow... Here it is a week later and after 2 days of flooding rains, 50 MPH wind gusts, and 40 degree temps (thank goodness, or we would have had 2+ more ft of snow), it is 55 degrees today and 99% of the snow is GONE!!!... My 'ROCKETSHIP' is getting a 'nice bath' so it will be all clean and shiny again!!!... Just wanted to tell everyone the good news...that is why I could never store my car for the winter (I can't anyway, since it is my ONLY daily driver)...we have a '95 Corvette that we bought used 3 yrs ago, and we get to drive it yr round...it is kept in the garage when the weather is bad, but as soon as we get a thaw and sunny weather, it is 'good to go', and it sure helps to chase those 'winter blues' :( away!!!... Just wanted to give everyone an update...'now back to your regularly scheduled programming'...lol...

I rented a Camaro and drove all over Tennessee, Kentucky and West Virginia last week.
I didn't get to see a whole lot of West Virginia, everything was buried in snow. It was awfully Christmas-y though, I loved the snow covered pines. And yes, the Camaro handled the icy roads like a champ. The V6 makes for a very well balanced car. |
