      My canvas top doesn't leak a drop.

        I dont know how you dudes deal with snow. Fuck that shit. It seems like an unbearable pain in the ass in so many areas. I wouldnt be able to deal with it. Plus I hate the cold.

          Its not that bad. E30s do great in the snow if you have snow tires and a LSD. It only lasts a few days here normally and it goes away for months. The Summers is what makes the PNW great. Realistically the winters are rather tame.

                Trust me... I want to see the car too!

                But I did take a shovel and brush to it and took a couple of feet off the roof. Now I have to wait for more of the snow to melt before I can actually dig the car free and open a door.

                Then I'll find out how solid the seals on the car are.

                This is true... it usually rains more than anything else in the PNW.

                The last time we had this much snow on record was 1964 when 89.7cm fell in December. We are at 88cm to date with another predicted snowfall coming tomorrow.

                  I think snow is awesome. I appreciate the weather here but i do wish it would snow, even just a few inches. It gets cold enough for everything to freeze over, but never snows. It came close a couple weeks ago, about a thousand feet above. maybe remotely some slush falling from the sky every couple of years but never snow. went to the canyons and there was a bit of snow there, some in malibu, but nothing any fun..

                  then again, everyone in LA panics when a deathly mist falls from the sky. I couldn't imagine what it would be like snowing here...would be chaos trying to get around.

                        I have just found out that shovelling snow is hella easier than shovelling slush.

                        Took an hour to dig her free and I'm happy she started on the first try.

                        Next time I'll just clear off the snow on a daily basis as my back hurts now.
