I would love to trade you, we were forecasted to get 4-6" and instead it rained most of yesterday and I awoke to a measely 1/2" in the wet grass. I need my snow during winter, unfortunately, we basically have had no snow since x-mas.

We've only had 3" thus far. Most of the winter it has been 55. Booo, where's winter?

We have had no winter here either. Most of this "winter" the temps have ranged between 65 and 80. Today it's 74, sunny, blue skies, and a nice breeze.

You can't beat RWD for WRC type fun in the snow. Too bad I have summer only tires on the 540, it's downright scary right now. So I just take out the 4Runner, lock the center diff to disable the traction and stability control, and have at it.

Not much snow here...but there was at Timberline Lodge, on Mount Hood last weekend. Trusty Range Rover had no problem getting out- others weren't so fortunate!




Cheers,

Paul.
