I went out yesterday morning for a bit, since I knew what was coming. Parked the Perkymobile back in her garage space about 30 min before it started snowing. Hibernated the rest of the day and watched football on my new plasma tv. 
This morning's walk to the subway was dicey, though. Ice, ice, ice...

At this point yeah. If I have to drive to Fredericksburg tomorrow for a meeting I can just use your car, right? Your tires are good, yeah? Insurance still current?
You don't mind, do you? Thanks you're the best!

My MR2 fish-tailed like crazy yesterday. I thought that since the engine is (almost) above of the rear drive wheels, it would handle a little bit better in the snowy weather. WRONG.
And what's the deal with all the ass-hat SUV drivers out there going over the speed limit? AWD don't mean shit in this weather if you still have on your stock radials - especially the idiot in the black Explorer that lost control on Wilson Blvd.

And of course, the one in the video posted earlier in this thread.
DC-area drivers + SUV drivers + this weather = chaos.
