P-car almost gone !

Good morning folks !

In a couple of hours, I will be porscheless. Now, I really wish I had a garage ! What tires do you recommend for that type of weather ?
Seriously, this is unreal. I have never seen that at sea level, and 5 miles from the coast...

Hey Tim,

Up in Huntington. 2 Miles from the sound, up on a hill so it's kinda windy.

Got 19 inches so far. It's just ridiculous.

silverC4s,

I've got a bunch of buddies in our Austin office, don't tease to much. I may have them come pay you a visit

Almost moved down there a couple of years back. Should have pushed harder for a transfer.

Austin is beutiful.

Scott

Thats hilarious...if simultaneously a little frightening. I'd get out there with a snow brush ASAP just to avoid that mental image...

don't forget that the snow weighs a lot and will eventually collapse flimsy roofs, so keep the garage roof cleared off! same thing happened in seattle several years ago, and garages, carports and boat sheds were flattened all over town.

Yeah guys, if you do the roof first, then the driveways & sidewalks....that's it...

I have to go for spin out to the lake, and take some measurements on my boat...I'll be thinking of you guys...

Shuey and Sarah, I guess it's just our turn. We've been lucky around here the last few years.
