It's about 6 degrees out side and the wind chill is about 20 below zero or more. Visibility at times is about 10 feet. Brrr,i'm really starting to like winter less and less. I want to go racing.

Just got back from the wrecking yard in Daytona. Temp was in the high 70's. Got a couple parts for the 72 and a front bumper for my wife's Nissan. Not rubbing it in, just don't miss the cold weather. Miss the turning of the leaves though.

I do not think i could make it in the teen degree weather. i have lived in S.C. all my life with a brief (1 yr) move to Florida back in the Mid 70's

30's and 40's is really Cold for us Native South Carolinians.

I moved down here to the flatlands in 2000 from a town at 5300 feet to get away from the 7 months of snow and 9 months of cold and be closer to the racing. Well today we now have 6 inches @ 25 degrees with more snow on the way. I'm not having any fun right now ! My shop is unheated and waay too cold to play in so, here I am on RJ crying in my brew. This off season stuff just drives me nutso !! :shock: :? :shock: :?

yea its 38 degrees in texas and everyone acts like its 6 degrees, the
DOT here sprayed a de-icing agent and it did not freeze but cars
ended up wrecking on the highways where the agent was sprayed,
and now the DOT is saying it was not their fault, their was 2 people
killed and 20 sent to the hospital, but no one is at fault, let the
law suits file in.

I would pay money to see southern people drive in a good old midwest snowstorm....just as long as I'm safe inside. My sister lived in Texas for a few years and she used to talk about the very rare occasion they got a tiny bit of snow ... :lol:


P.S. It is 2 deg above zero right now around here...and this is the only type of weather you can get a flat tire in. It's the Law.

radicalz,i'm in the Lawrence area. Just north of I-94. I think it's the twilight zone. Was in Paw Paw today 10 miles east sun was shining get back here closer to the lake and it looked like it never quit snowing. And now they're calling for another storm starting late tonight or early morning. CAN'T WAIT!!!

Snowing again in Oregon...

It's all good, it's another chance to lock in the hubs & make snowmans with the kids. We are @ 300Ft above sea level & rarely see it here (snow).
So it is like a new thing... if were to stay day in day out, that would suck.
