There's a winter storm warning in effect for tomorrow with snow and freezing rain! The weather is getting more crazy. On Monday Colorado was 74 F and yesterday they had 2 feet of snow!

It's still early April, nothing new for this time of year. Now if it was June, then something is wrong!

Snowed heavily last year on April 20th or 21st. Pretty normal, most years see at least a little white stuff in April.

Don't panic!!!!

i gleaned the ultimate cost benefit by not putting them on at all. the one day we had a wicked storm, i chose to stay home and not drive. the rest of the winter i have been quite fine without them.

if you have them but didn't use them, I'm not sure how you saved any money. Your other tires will need replacing sooner now because of the increased mileage driven on them... and you can't really drive in summer with your winter tires, I don't think the warm temps are good for them.
:D
agreed.

You are probably the guy driving in the snow at a snails pace, holding up the traffic for the drivers with winter tires.

nope i live rurally and commute 42 km's to work, all back roads. There is no traffic. If the back roads happen to be snowy,i wait til the plow and sander come by It takes me half an hour, sun, rain, snow or whatever.

If i lived in the burbs and had to commute to work around the GTA, there is no way i would be dumb enough to take a car. watching the news choppers on tv every nite keeps me thinking...what a bunch of poor dumb fucks losing a couple of hours of their lives sitting in traffic every day, and then being even more stupid to wrangle around in the snow and freezing rain on top of that, snow tires or no snow tires

Wow. What a storm.:rolleyes:

The roads are bone dry. Even I took the subway downtown tonight and I drive everywhere. I was spooked by the forecast and had already changed my tires.
