Default .snow storm

.....Well I was going to post a new thread regarding the MCF members of the
North East Clan.
Hope everyone is doing well and No Power outages ? It was clear and a balmy
45 today in Little Rock but there was chilly breeze all day long.
Back in 2000 we were hit with a really bad ice storm across the entire state.
Parts of the state were without power for nearly a month ! I don't drive at all
in that stuff and If I have to I will weigh my S10 down with 40lb concrete
cylinders ( from a soils lab ). They work great.

Be safe everyone and don't do any off roading with your MC....

Great advice lol.
I exagerated earlier, according to the news, as of right now we've had 19 inches, not quite 2 feet haha.

This is a little bit of a bump, but here in Ohio we're getting hit pretty hard by snow storms. I ended up driving the Monte 30 miles @ about 20-35mph through the snow back home last night (on the back roads). The car definitely handled nicely and kept me comfortable. There was nobody on the roads for miles, couldn't even see the lines, and from what I heard it's still like that today (and still snowing). I don't know what it is, but there's just something I appreciate looking out into that frozen hell of a blizzard while comfortable in my heated seats.
