Replying to: rsholland (Dec 19, 2008 4:57 am) Thanks Bob! I like the description! I'm pretty camoflauged in the snow! Driving up and down these steep hills in Seattle in the snow and ice has not been fun- I'm much more afraid of other drivers! The good news is the STi actually has been pretty good going up and down these hills when driven carefully. Have a safe weekend everyone! tom Replies to this message: ateixeira (Dec 22, 2008 1:31 pm) tsy (Dec 22, 2008 1:41 pm) rsholland (Dec 22, 2008 6:51 pm) and 2 more...

Replying to: ateixeira (Dec 22, 2008 1:31 pm) Yeah, I sometimes don't see it with all the snow we have now. We're under a foot of snow which is really rare here in Seattle! We've got like 2 snow plows total for the whole metro Seattle area and lots of hills so driving has been scary- not for me but because I have to worry about everyone else. People here have a hard time driving in rain let alone snow! Have a safe and wonderful Christmas everyone!!! tom Replies to this message: rsholland (Dec 22, 2008 6:51 pm) tsy (Dec 22, 2008 8:15 pm) lucien2 (Dec 23, 2008 6:50 am)

Replying to: lilbluewgn02 (Dec 22, 2008 10:03 am) Happy Festivus for the rest of us! Best word to describe our weather: slammed. Allegedly a break tomorrow, then another 6-8 inches Christmas Eve. As long as the wind stays calm, it's fine, but twice yesterday, we had to get plows or graders to either cut through drifts to get TO a patient, or cut us a path to get away FROM a scene. Stuck the truck once, but got help from the neighborhood 20 tons of fire engine, hard chains, ATC, and we still got stuck. BUT! We got further than the first rescue plow - he got stuck on his way to us! Let's be particularly careful out there! Cheers!

Replying to: hammerhead (Dec 22, 2008 6:42 pm) No envy there....but I can believe it no doubt. Strange this winter, or actually pre-winter has been. Didn't the Farmers Almanac call for a mild winter? More snow tomorrow through the end of the week for us too, with a mix of sleet/rain somewhere in there.... We got 14" on Friday, and I moved my household via a borrowed '08 Tundra 4x4 and 20' covered trailer. Roads were not passable, saw many vehicles stuck in unplowed snow. Thought the title company would cancel the closings, but they didn't, so we ventured on. Thankfully we moved a few trailer loads Thursday night prior to the snow. Now we just need to figure out where things should go in the new house. Kids are excited, the new house has a fireplace so Santa has a chimney to come down! -Brian

Replying to: hammerhead (Dec 22, 2008 6:42 pm) Hey Paul Was wondering how you were doing- we have it bad on our side of the mountains- you guys must be under a sea of snow! Keep safe! tom Replies to this message: hammerhead (Dec 23, 2008 9:24 am) tsy (Dec 23, 2008 10:21 am)

Replying to: rsholland (Dec 22, 2008 6:51 pm) Nah, I put all season tires on to replace the summer tires- mostly because of the cold temps and for light snow duty. They've actually been reasonable in the snow- driven up some steep hills with no problem. But since the snow has gotten deeper I've been driving our SUV. I'm sure the car would do great with snow tires! But the car has it's limitations because of it's limited ground clearance. We just don't get much snow here (usually- this year is very unusual) so getting snow tires is not something I've ever considered (although thinking about it now). Hope you guys on the right coast are doing ok with the storm that his us. tom Replies to this message: lucien2 (Dec 23, 2008 6:50 am)
