Over here in the central valley we have our winter at night time. It'll get up into the 50's and 60's during the day.
It's been crystal clear here, day and night for 5 days, until today. Clear means cold this time of year at this latitude....47°+N.....and when seasonal storms come in it means snow, wind, rain...sometimes the storms come straight from Hawaii. What a mix!
47° N follow that sucker around the globe and you may encounter some places that are considered mighty cold ...in Lynden, WA I was pretty near 49°N! (Think of Harbin China with ice carving...) thank heaven for the Pacific Heat Sink.

Good to know you guys are getting some moisture.
My FWD Volvo sucks in the snow with wide summer tires. Too easy to throw on some winter tires, then the car leaves the SUV's in the ditch, or the middle of a hill, which I'm forced to drive around :idiots:

+57F in the garage right now at 8:00PM this evening.
In about another month it'll get down to +27F at the coldest.

I've never used chains on a FWD car. How does that work out?
Enough snow here too for powersliding the RWD Volvo wagon.

Works out just fine.
