Snowy Drive Home
We got about 3" of snow in East Tennessee this afternoon. Made for a pretty drive home from work (22 miles).

Love driving the 944 in snow.
I was just in Colorado, at the summit of Vail pass (11,600ft), in a driving snow storm.
Anyone that says the 944 is terrible in the snow doesn't know WTF they are doing (Or the have 275+ summer tires on the back lol)

Yup, it does. I couldn't climb a 3 degree incline with those tires (275s)on no matter what I tried...

Looks like 8 months out of a year here. Except you have less snow. And it looks warmer.

We usually do not have much snow and it's usually gone within a few days. The temperature rarely gets below 20F for any length of time.
Most people around here panic at a few inches of snow. They forget how to drive, empty the stores of bread and milk, etc.
Looks as if we may get some more snow over the next few days.
