Winter Weather How is the weather up north? You may want to brace yourselves if it hasn't already started. I came in to work this morning around 6:30 with no snow on the ground, and now 3 hours later is atleast 3" maybe more.
PS - Mikey.....you better make it in to work, you bum. I know you know how to drive in this stuff.

It's 10:30 and it's still snowing pretty good. News reports are saying there's a chance of freezing rain later today for the Portland/Vancouver areas. That should make it interesting on top of all this snow lol.... I know how to drive in this crap, but it's everyone else that worries me. I can't prevent a socker mom from sliding into my car because she isn't experienced with driving in these conditions. I was watching the news, and saw a Jeep Wrangler stuck on a very very slight incline,,,,, IN 2WD!! Dumbass doesn't even know how to operate his own 4WD transfer case lol...!!
See, there are advantages to coming in later than 6:30am lol..... My school is closed today, so it's a snow day for me,,,, SUCKA!

Damn I wish there was more snow here so I could go play! I have studded Nokian Hakkas in 195 in the rear and uber skinny 165 in front and now my rear "differential" is permanently locked, my Volvo owns in the snow!
I am also currently overstocked on Hakkas in 195/65R15 so if anybody needs a set of barely (under 25 miles) used studded snows, let me know.

On second thought, he should have his license revoked!

Yeah that video has been viewed so many times. That guy (interviewed) was on the brakes the entire time. It isn't real visible in that video, but that is a steep hill. At that same intersection a fire truck got hit by 2 more cars. Very entertaining though.
