3 rounds of driveway clearing yesterday and a bit of 1 foot of snow..... it is now 26 degrees warmer than when I woke up to -5F with wind chills of -15 to -20.... more snow tonight but it sounds like a dusting to an inch

Driveway clearing? Piffle. If the snow is too deep, just put a few more inches of lift on the Jeep, some bigger tires, and you're good to go. The sun will clear the driveway eventually.

Something new tonight in the weather...snow and cold

 

[Dirty Dog]

Same here. Well... cold anyway. No snow. But it's 39 now and that's going to be the high for the day.
But it's all good, because we're strapping the Vette to the dyno today, and cold air is denser. So bitter cold 39F air should be awesome.

well, kid relapsed on his cold today...on top of DH being still sick.

Well, the dyno time was good. We got 350HP & 350 lb/ft at the wheels, but that had the tune right on the ragged edge. We backed off a notch to make the tune a little safer for street driving and ended up with 331HP & 344lb/ft at the wheels. And over 300lb/ft from 2350 all the way to 6000RPM.
Not at all bad for a basically stock engine, other than intake and exhaust.
I do see a blower in the future...

Show off

This morning at 1:30 am I got called out with the emergency disaster team for a fire. Of course it was snowing and cold. Got home at 6am shoveled the driveway and side walk then went to bed. Got up at 10:30 and could not even tell I had shoveled so it was back out for a couple of hours to find the driveway and side walk again. I just love winter
on a good note we are expected to have a whole day without snow before we get 3 days in a row of it.

 

[Xue Sheng]

I got up this morning late and had completely forgot about the snow...... so I had to go out and clear the driveway... and I got to work and was told about the snow that was coming that was supposed to last form Saturday to Tuesday and leave us about 2 feet when it was over..... the irony is that this morning while clearing the driveway it hit me that I was officially completely sick of snow and winter and I wanted spring to come..... oh well the joys of living in the Northeast

 

[Dirty Dog]

It's only 64 here today...
Admittedly warmer than usual for February.
But in a week we will be on Cozumel, where the projection is for sun and a brisk 82-85F every day.

Not that I'm rubbing it in, Xue...

 

[Xue Sheng]

You would be...if I liked heat and humidity...and I don't...but there are place you could go that would be rubbing it in...but I will be darned if I'm going to tell you where those are
