Jeffsport..... where are you located? It isn't displayed under your avatar. Check your profile settings.

Anyhow, yea we had that crap roll through the Chicagoland area yesterday.

Started out as rain, then ice, then snow. Didn't get much accumulation, about an 1" or so, but still.

The weatherman are saying this "event" is 5 weeks earlier than last year, so IDK if that's good, or bad.

Either way, my SHO was tucked neatly away in the garage, all nice and warm, and dry.

I try to avoid driving in the 1st couple of snowfalls, as most people continue to drive like true idiots, and only adjust their driving habits, after being forced to do so, from two to four snow falls.

All quiet but for the wind out here.  Prediction changed from 50% chance of freezing rain to a wee chance of a flurry.  Yeehaw!

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
