Snow, rain, slippery roads and...
Got a couple inches of snow in Toronto last night! Of course it took me 3 hours to drive to work this morning!!!
 The only funny thing is that I got to see several rices stuck in ditches, guard rails and other cars. Now normally I would not think this is funny, but you gotta love how these bone heads drive like retards all the time and never get caught, until a day like today....   |

Yeh the roads are pretty bad, I went to go drop my mom off at work (only 2 minutes away) but it was really slippery. Glad I'm done school, I would of had to leave last night probably. I wish I had a rwd vehicle right now just to mess around with. =) Actually I just wish I had insurance on my pace car. lol

I quite enjoy driving the stang in the snow. It's so fun sliding the thing around and being able to roast the tires in anygear from any RPM. The only thing I'm worried about is other people smashing into me. I grew up in Yellowknife so I have some extensive winter driving experience. For anyone that doesn't know where that is (all you americans) it is pretty much straight east of ALASKA. Up there we get 10 months of winter and 2 months of bad sledding

Here on the left coast we've had 2 times where the temp has went below freezing
Tomorrows high is 8*C, too bad it's rained for the last week straight, though. Up in Kamloops, they had 1" of snow once so far this season and there's been only one day where it didn't get above 0*C!Sad thing is I put my mustang away back at the start of November, when I go home for christmas, I'll probably drive it around since it's still insured. Heck the weathers been better back in Edmonton! Take it easy, Cam

hell dude, when we had that nice sunny spell there a few weeks ago it was damn cold up here on the central west of the island. it was between -8*C to -10*C in the morning and about 6*C at its highest. man it started to snow tonight for about an hour, its 1*C right now. but thankfully it stopped. mind you vancouver is a quite mild place. the worst day i had this fall was the day we were up on this mountain laying out the road for this logging company and we were high enough up that we were nearly level with a glacier from the next mountain. that was cold when we got up there at 8am it was -8*C and the temp only rose to -2*C with a fair wind going through, it was chilly. but it was one hell of a view seeing that glacier and looking down a valley from the top.

Damn it's cold here... about -15*c with the Windchill putting it around -24*c. I dropped my brother back at school came home and told my mom there was no way in hell I was going back out there. I do not like that coldness. I think it's supposed to 'warm' up to -4 today.

It is actually raining here in CA
I can't believe it. Today is the second day in a row it's raining, it's kind of wierd seeing as how we rarely get rain. At least people are used to driving in bad weather in other places. Here in CA, people either drive 25 mph when a slight drizzle comes down, or 85 mph when it's pouring. It's like, when the rain starts the brains turn off. It is kind of fun just going to an empty parking lot and messing around with the mustang now that the roads are slick. It's not too fun when the s/c comes on, it's almost turned me sideways a few times within a matter of 2 days. Take care, Keith

Rain is fun. I was working on my burnouts at a redlight last night. We get so little rain the oil comes up and its a slippery as a wet box, but more fun. (well not as fun as the other one )
