it really depends.... snow has come late november on occasion but sometimes it doesnt snow all the way till late january. you should be able to drive your car around even if it does snow because it will just be light flurries. i wouldn't worry about it if i were u.

You should be fine, Ive had the t-tops off in December before. Weather IS unpredictable hear though. Expect the worst late January on thru to March.

You should be alright - we've had a few freak snowstorms in Nov and Dec, but usually not till Jan and Feb. Besides, if its really bad, they shut the whole world down and you can just stay home...

I think it snowed a total of 6 inches last year. There were only two snowfalls that amounted to anything. Most of it is gone the next day. It's the ice you need to be careful with.

I drove my GTO through the winter and it did fine. The wider tires on your T/A will make it a little more difficult (especially if they're not all season), but I'm sure you will be just fine.

Have you ever lived anywhere with bad winters? That's what will make or break your driving ability.

I drove through a very hill ridden part of NOVA with the streets covered in a thin layer of snow and sleet in my 88 with bald tires. You should do just fine haha

I grew up in South Dakota so driving in snow and ice is no problem

Like the other guy said it's the other people that scare the crap out of me

yeah, it's not really about the car as much as the driver's ability usually - up to a point - then, you just need the clearance and tires to dig through the snow. I've seen people in Michigan with 5-6" of snow driving modded LS1's and big-blocks with very little trouble. Also saw someone get stuck in a lifted 4x4 with swampers in 7" of snow - it was hilarious imo.
