Gotta go to Madison, WI. Its a nice place in summer but winter, you
godda be kiddin. I always wanted to sail on those two lakes but I'll
take a rain check till summer. Finally found my old parka, gloves and
such. Has the water turned into that bizarro state called "ice" yet
there?

What are you blathering about? Winter doesn't even start for another
month.

14" of snow in Cleveland, OH and seeing the snow all over the Northeast
on
hte weather map, is close enough to winter to count.

Lake affect snow in western NY, it means you could get 4" or 4 feet!
Usually substantially more than 4 inches!

It is still snow.

Flurries here today. that means everyone gets into a panic about
installing their winter tires.
My son will pay for four...mounted on steel rims for our Dodge Charger,
but the Ranger makes do with a couple of sandbags over the rear wheels for
traction.

When I go to Tahoe, I just use the standard all weather tires on the truck
or Blazer and push the 4x4 button. *Nice thing about the snow here. *Well
mannered. *Stays high in the mountains 95% of the time. *We get snow at my
level, 430', about once every 10 years.- Hide quoted text -

When I was in Martinez, I seen snow about half way down the flanks of
Mt. Diablo, but never getting down to the lower elevations.
