well ,im in upper illinois, it already went through, it hit us last week at this time, not sure what you got out of it, we had roads marked "impassable" they shut down the plowing cause they couldnet push it all. people heading north hit a part of wisc that got about 20 inches, got stranded in their cars for 18 hours.

haha nice icon killa cam, i just paid attention to what hes doing, haha whered you steal that from?

no, nothing nearly like that! I have family in Winthrop Harbor if you are familiar with that area? Just a few blocks to walk from their house and you are in Wisconsin. The icon I stole from some Mustang Forum way back when...not sure which one? lol

Here in Montana we had roughly 20 inches of snow fall in 3 days a few weeks ago, then it got really cold (about -30 at night and maybe 0 during the day) Now it is partially sunny, in the mid 40's during the day, and snowing maybe an inch or 2 at night. The snowpack is way up, which is good news. Hopefully we'll be drought free this summer.

Tech, you have 2 places that are probably the safest on Earth....

Your Volvos, stay in the Volvos when a tornado hits your area!!! And if you must run, you can run fast!!!

And the weather herein Narita, Japan has been crappier than ever. Freezing rain yesterday, and today the wind was blowing so strong that I got sea-sick by sitting in the flight deck of an A330-200 while it was sitting at a gate [sm=sick.gif]. I also saw some airplanes doing some scary numbers during take-off; I bet over 50 seat covers had to bereplaced at the destination on each flight[X(].

I must say, with all the snow we've been getting here in Chicagoland, my Volvo has no trouble at all driving through the stuff, I LOVE IT!

More snow here in Detroit this winter than we've had in a long time. I'm tired of plowing my driveway, lol! Had another dusting overnight.

High today is supposed to be around 25, and the low going into tomorrow morning will be -1 Farenheit... freakin' cold!

My wife raves about how well the Volvo handles in the snow!
