Oh my! Thanks for this info. Now let us behave and not forget that we live in Michigan. Drive carefully, turn off the over-drive here and there for extra traction, breath...
Here ya go

4 Wheel Drive is sweeeeeet,
So is the heated seat.
No big deal. It's Michigan. It snows. It is also the reason that some leave the area. How are things in Henderson, Ray?
Traction control and targeted use of ones over-drive button helps too. I drove sticks for years and wish I could switch out to one in the snow!

It is very pretty outside! :D
I've said it before, and you guessed it; I'll say it again: snow is cool!
Shoveled twice already
Every big Detroit snowstorm features fine snow falling steadily from the east, like it now. Looks like about 5 inches already.

It's not that balmy here in the high desert today. High is only 55. It was unusual this morning, though, as we had nearly complete cloud cover. That's all cleared now and we're back to the sun and wispy clouds.Quote:

So that means we're half way through. Looks like I'll be shrovelling around midnight 😩Quote:

I am not much for the cold but I have to admit I miss the snow,especially the first snowfall.
Showing the news that a plane slid off the runway in Detroit airport,glad everybody got out safe,and hope everybody else stays safe also.
I'm with you, brother. The Christmas lights draped over the snow covered shrubs leave me all misty. However, I don't miss the dirty-cold slush and heavy gray skies of February and March. Uck! Guess you've got to take the bitter with the sweet.Quote:
