The good news (for me) is that the snow is supposed to be a couple of inches in Sid's area, but less than .25 in the metro area. With snow forecasts it is always just a SWAG, Scientific Wild Ass Guess.

They say it's gonna get wet starting tonight and through the weekend. But so far the sun is shining and there are few clouds in the sky. Another beautiful day in La La Land.

i used to blow past the all wheel drive donuts in my '83 944. my secret: proper tires, all around. their secret: all season radials. guess what? all season radials suck in actual snow.

i have proper AT tires, emphasis on snow, on my rover. it rocks right past the all season donuts.

I like the Yokohama Geolander AT's. They did very well last year in snow we measured in feet.

Years ago I bought real snow tires for the back of the El Camino. I would put them on every fall and take them off every spring. I plum wore them slick after 3 years. We did not have one single snow storm in those 3 years. They were snow repellent tires. I tried to get all my co-workers to chip in on the cost of new snow tires but they refused. I did not buy them and we had several big snow storms.

I actually had a set of studded snow tires once. Fun to drive on.
