Noooo SNOWWW
 

Well it has come true, it is officially snowing here in CT kinda early in October, nonetheless it sadly means.....the Z is in for the winter. :(

Yea WTF is that about? We might be getting some one Saturday but nothing like that. I'm gonna give her to the middle or end of November then she is going to sleep.

Still 80 here @ 8pm. :(

:gtfo2:




LOL J/K

Crap, I'll be heading through Middletown on Saturday. :(

:icon23::bowrofl:

Highest it got here was 65 today

Here in Pittsburgh, it's cold, dark and rainy. Car was garaged for the winter this past weekend. Hurry April...

My car is in CT inside the garage, luckily I am not. It was 70 degrees outside here this afternoon at the beach

sucks, heard its gonna snow more saturday...be safe out there.

Exactly!! I was so sad today, I just wish spring would be here alreaddy, hopefully weather permitting I can bring it out during the dry and sunny days...but I highly doubt I will.

:tup:

They are calling for some light snow saturday just in time for the planned cruise a couple of us mid-atlantic members were looking forward to through some scenic roads...

There goes that... :(

My snow tires are going on this weekend.

:icon18:

Anyone really use the Z on a daily even through harsh conditions like ice, snow, sleet, freezing temps. I live on Long Island and it can get reallllly bad from about Dec to March.

I had a layer of frost on my maxima that was sitting out last night. No snow here yet but it's looming.

However, as sad as I am to garage the Z, I'm just as happy for SNOWBOARDING SEASON!

Got a set of base wheels with BLizzaks for the winter. Works a treat. Yes, you can easily pop the rear end loose with power, but the sport package LSD is actually useful in winter driving. I'd NEVER use the stock sport tires in the winter. Even in colder weather the tires lose their stick as the tread gets hard. I nearly spun mine first year I owned it at 30 degrees F coming aggressively through a roundabout on dry pavement -- a turn I regularly take for granted. It's not just the tread pattern, but the tread compound that makes winter tires a necessity here in the Northeast USA.

Hope this helps...

We're expecting snow tonight here above 53 degrees N Lat.

:iagree::tiphat:

i saw frost on my honda parked outside this am... too early still to swap to snows for me. maybe next weekend. our temps ranging around 34-55F right now.

I feel ya... we had about 3 inches last night and now we're supposed to get 6-12 over the weekend.

Z is going into hibernation =(

54ºF and rain forecast for the whole weekend here in my area. :mad:

Yup, i still need to give it 1 more wash before i put it away for the winter. Not doing that in 40 degree weather! Im banking on a warm spell in a week or two!!

lol... that's what I was doing the other day. My neighbors must think I'm nuts

hahaha, next week is going to be in the 50's... problem is at this point, by the time i get home from work its about dark:icon14:

the bottom temp i wash my car is 35F. im wearing full gear though with rubber gloves, snow pants, jacket, etc so im not cold at all...actually i get pretty hot with all that on. :D

i found that at temps around ~ 33-34F, when wind picks up the water freezes on the panels. lol

IN FOR PICS :bowrofl:

dats weird i live in east hartford about 11 miles away from middletown and it didnt snow, only rain , do u have another car that u use on the winter or daily driver?

googbye Z....have a nice hibernation....hello AWD subaru POS. lol

:hello:

Might get to test out my new all season tires in the snow on Saturday :icon17:

That sucks

We might get some very light flurries saturday but nothing that should stick.

I'm hoping to get 2-3 more weeks before storage time.

:confused: we all look like that in my town when washing cars. :icon17: (ok, only me)

Hey jose, yeah I do its the altima or minivan pictured in OP, and yeah its strange cuz even my friend in meriden (neighboring town) didnt experience snow, but cromwell did, I guess some ppl lucked out. :p

yep, some snow possible around here in MD this weekend.
not looking forward to winter at all..

I'm gonna resurrect this thread from the dead when we get a crazy Noreaster with like 20''+ of snow in a month or two.

That's if you remember to do it :|

I don't think you've reminded the Panda about your brakes today......

don't wanna disturb his cardinal parade + bf3.

Makes sense.

There is a sniwstorm coming Saturday night we suppose to get between 4 to 8 inches dont sound too good
