    Sure......from you perspective. Tough to take care of it when it's deeper than the snow blower!

    it's a really nice sunny day here and coming up to around -14C, I live in the warmer part of the province. (we're at about -38F with windchill most days in the morning though)

    Doesn't help much if the snow is higher than the front of my car......and no plows in sight as yet. Snow day tomorrow?!

    Looking at an inch or so to start coming down soon. The natives of STL are starting to get a little stir-crazy:lol:

    I think the first Gens. have better plowing abilities in deep snow, than the newer Gens do, with the blunter front ends...

    My 03 justa could push snow for 50 miles of axle deep snow:Thumbsup: in a snowstorm:crazy:

    The question should cease to be 'How Cold Is It?' but rather 'How Much Longer Cold Is It?'.

    I had a 28" tracked 2 stage Honda while in Northern Michigan. It still took me 1 1/2 hours every other day. I finally gave in and got a plow. 15 min for mine then do the neighbors.

    Does that plow attach to the front tow hook fitting on your MINI, or did you have to bolt it to the front subframe? :lol:

    keeping it frosty !

    As of Tuesday, Minneapolis has seen 42 sub-zero nights, which is currently 3 shy of getting into the "Top 10 Winters for Days with Low Below Zero".

    The other important note is that there were 17 consecutive days in a row with sub-zero lows and this is tied for the 8th longest streak in (MN) recorded history.

    I have to admit I am kinda bummed all the storms are going to the south this week. Another foot of snow here in Columbus on top of what is already here just sounds like so much fun to me.

    We are getting ready for a BIG Nor'Easter with 8-14 + inch's of snow tonight into tomorrow afternoon sometime. UGH

    Rock salt is sold out everywhere, the food stores have been super busy. No Milk, Bread or Eggs so I guess everyone is planning on having French Toast Thursday. :lol:

    I am so done with Winter and am thankful both my wife and I work from home now. Don't worry we are on separate floors. (She is on the 3rd me on the 1st)

    We don't have to drive in this crap, or use up vacation days because we cannot get to work as long as we have electric and internet we are good to go. :Thumbsup:
