I just had my first experience in the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S in the snow. Its 200% better then the OEM. In all weather conditions(dry,wet,cold,snow)it surpasses the OEMs. It rides much quieter. I payed $200 for one tire, you get what you pay for. ZR rated and 400thread wear!

Btw, I have a Silverstone Enthusiast

i'm sure they just hiked up the number so they could say "good news, the storm isn't going to be as large as expected and we're not going to get as much snow...aren't you happy?"
you ralize that if you are a weatherman....well, if you do a crappy job you still get paid the same. you can tell the wrong weather every day and blame it on something else. haha. any other job....you do something wrong....you get fired!

Dave, after watching last night's game, I think you may have to change your name on this board. Urghhh, good thing all the bricks were outside after watching the Celts blow that 26 point lead or I'd be shopping for a new TV today!
In other matters, it's days like this that I wonder why I never got around to rebuilding the garage that I knocked down for an addition to the house...
Around 11 AM here in Needham,MA and we have ~12 inches with another ~12 inches predicted. I'm actually looking forward to taking my "new" little A4 Quattro out for a spin! Meanwhile, as I'm cleaning all the snow off of the Audi, my Z is carving canyons in the California mountains in probably 75 degree temps. Someone please remind me why we live up here again!![Big Grin](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

About 1:45 here now...and Worcester's only got 2" on the ground. Normally, I'd gloat at this point, but from what Harvey says, there's an atomic snow bomb due to fall on the Worcester hills this evening.

ok, it's 5PM EST....we're supposed to get snow till tomorrow....and it's supposed to get bad later on tonight.
this is what it's like now (the z is on the left, the civic is on the right).
that's about 1/2 of what we're supposed to get!

Well, at least it is safely parked for now. Just think how it would be if you were out on the road trying to get home.........I shudder to think about the times I was stuck in the snow belt heading back to Pittsburgh from Erie, PA.........Southern California has it's faults, but snow is not one of them. I can see snow if I want just by heading to Big Bear......but it is MY choice......lol

is that 4 feet with the drift....or after you took the snowblower out and piled it up there?
how much did you gets get where you are located (where in NY?).
we're in a lull here here in boston....and i would guess we have somewhere between 18-24 inches (at least)....but, it's supposed to start up strong again and there is supposed to be another 10 inches by morning.
man....the pats / dolphins game is going to be greeeeeat!
i'd post more pics of my car....but, i'll just wait till the morning to get some shots where you can't see my car at all.
ok, put it this way....i have my windshield wipers up (as you can see in the picture i posted before). well, as of 11:38 EST....you can only see the very tip of them.

YUP! That's four feet of snow all right. It was piled there via the an ordinary snow shovel and the cold wind. Unfortunately, the only blower that is near me is my next door neighbor. Actually I'm saying that he's basically a major wind bag!
The weather people were saying that we received about 12 inches this afternoon. It's still blustering a bit around now. We'll probably see a few more inches before tomorrow. Ahhhh yes - FOOTBALL tomorrow. Wooo Hoooo!
However, the real gooooood news is that my "Z" is tucked away in the garage and the Rodeo will be the means of transportation until this $%*#! goes away.
