And even more predicted for tomorrow! We got about 3" today. I've had my other car out a couple times, w a little snow and road treatment in between, I like to wait for a couple big rains before taking it out again in hopes that washes away most of the corrosive chemicals from the roads

We had about 5cm last night and another 10-15 expected throughout today and overnight here about an hour north of Toronto.
Just doesn't want to let go, I fired my 76 up yesterday and took it for a 20 klm run, a few flurries were flying around but the roads were dry.
Parked it , wiped it down with spray wax , then covered it back up till our next nice day.
Its funny how a drive in the Cutlass after a long winter can be so good.
I think my battery is almost done thou , 3 years old and the interstate battery didn't want to hold a charge.
Holding out for another nice day.

Phoenix forecast is 88º today with increasing temps until we hit 96º on Wednesday.

You folks enjoy winter while you can - with this globull warming thing you may start experiencing the same temps in your area in the near future!

Same over here.....I've had the Super88 out twice this "spring" but we won't go out again until the rains wash all the salt down the drain.

Hoping things clear up for Herb Chamber's Cars 'n' Coffee this Saturday at his his BMW dealership in Sudbury MA next door to me. 7-10 AM for anyone in the area.
