My mom just sent me pics of my dog playing in the snow...couldn't see him and he's black, lol. Glad I decided against coming home for Christmas, I'd be stuck in an airport somewhere.

Snow should be starting here any minute.

Miata is safe parked up at my apartment at college. (assuming the retarded plow drivers dont screw it up)

neogenesis2004 12-19-2009 04:54 PM

I've got a solid 18 inches outside here. Pretty much blows, but I've been putting the xbox 360 to use again for the first time in months.

curly 12-19-2009 05:36 PM

That's a really cool shot sir. I wish we had our snow storm back from last year. My quad got a lot of use on the roads.

What it looked like this morning when I left Carlsbad:

Currently sitting at IAH, hoping that the plane which will take me to RSW gets in on time. Things have been funky at the airports all day.

y8s 12-19-2009 09:42 PM

Any more snow, and my car will vanish into the whiteness.

It's been 40 and over cast for weeks here. We had a day of 72 and partly sunny in there, as if to taunt me. That night, between my Mom's house and mine I had to stop and put the top up before my balls actually froze off. It hasn't broken 45 since :(

I moved away from Northern Va in 93. It was too far north. ^^That nonsense kept happening.

I want snow!! I'm in a damn snow belt and we haven't gotten anything!! This sucks I got my new 4x4 for nothing. Not even a white Christmas. BS!!

neogenesis2004 12-20-2009 10:41 AM

Snow is fucking lame. I like to maybe go an vacation to some snow and boarding. I never would want to live in it though.

y8s 12-20-2009 11:03 AM

wah wah neo, it's 2% of the year.

my across the street neighbor was out warming up his subaru yesterday right in the middle of the storm looking to do some recreational driving.

Braineack 12-20-2009 11:04 AM

What kinda camera do you have :brain:?

TurboTim 12-20-2009 11:30 AM

Snow is funny. 10 miles south of me got 12 more inches, according to the totals on the news and pictures. We got maybe 10-12". All the streets are clear already.

Nice! I'm looking to pick up a DSLR for my birthday in April.....seeing your pics just had me jealous. I'm so sick of my low quality point and shoot camera. I plan on going with the Canon T1i.

miatamania 12-20-2009 01:17 PM

We didn't get shit where I am...40 miles west of me they got 12" or so.

I was upset the SVX didn't get to go play. :(

Seriously! When will us northern people get some snow :vash::vash:

Oscar 12-20-2009 02:34 PM

Only about 6 inches of snow here. Still got the mazda2 stuck at a traffic light though :giggle: Miata stays parked, bald 205 wide summer tires just don't cut it.

shuiend 12-20-2009 05:41 PM

I spent a total of about 3 hours shoveling today. A 50 pound bag of salt was not enough for my driveway and in front of my house. I will probably go home for lunch tomorrow and try to clear up a lot of the street while it is above freezing.

Cococarbine3 12-20-2009 05:50 PM

Hmm... of all the years I've spent living in snow, I've never thought of raising the wipers before a storm. They always get all frozen on. Good idea, thanks.

Yeah, snow is pretty wimpy in Chitown this year.

TimR 12-20-2009 06:30 PM

about 8 inches in amishville pa... miata wouldnt budge with the rs3s :bowrofl:

IcantDo55 12-20-2009 06:42 PM

No snow here just rain. But I did get to go racing today. Ha Ha!

airbrush1 12-20-2009 11:03 PM

Just got back from hot wings and sno-nuts meet! The miata BLOWS in the snow and Ice... no suprise there....

It IS awful fun to spin on ice though! All the guys in the subaru club wanted rides :)

On a sad note, my buddy Todd blew up his wrx wagon from some 4th gear WOT spinning for an extended period of time :( it's rod knocking like a bitch and he has no oil pressure...

EJ Civic. the trunk was so loaded it looked like a hatch.

so over the next two days we're going to have refreeze and remelt and refreeze. 20 inches of snow turns into a lot of nasty black ice that way.

SKMetalworks 12-21-2009 12:25 AM

I wish we had snow up in Seattle. Its always fun to play.

hustler 12-21-2009 08:54 AM

I'll send you guys track pics next weekend, lol.

That is my 92 miata on 13 inch rally cross tires. Unfortunately the fronts would rub to much.

http://www.boostedmiata.com/gallery2...serialNumber=2
So that is what I drove home from work today with. Worked well getting up my street. Bitches still have not plowed it.

Savington 12-21-2009 04:56 PM

It was a bit nippy at the track yesterday, like 65 degrees. :(

Fuck those with no seasons.
Too bad both my Miata's are beging caged right now, or I'd be drifting all day. I'm already having loads of fun in my Alfa.

Too bad my working place is around 32 F with the heater on.

NA6C-Guy 12-21-2009 05:39 PM

This weather in the upper 50's is killing me. I even had to swat away some left over summer bugs today. I do wish it would snow like that here. Haven't seen major snow since the '93 blizzard.

FRT_Fun 12-21-2009 05:50 PM

I've decided I will pray to the snow gods that it doesn't snow until after the first week in January.

I'm gonna try and drive my Miata from Chicago to NY over my 4 day break for new years.

y8s 12-21-2009 05:51 PM

still a foot of snow on top of my miata.

and our street is still not plowed. neither is the feeder street it intersects. bout to go out and try out the snow tires on the civic.
