Lainey, how dense is the snow on top of the convertible?
Pretty dense, were you concerned about the weight? My +1 is not. The S has lived outside in the winter for 10+ years. One storm dumped 30 inches on it. Hopefully, it will be OK when the snow melts......It really is amazing how good it looks when the cover comes off.
If the S2000 had a fabric top there would be some concern over its ability to stretch or shrink out of shape but they have more resistance being made of vinyl.

Does misery love company? Today was cold and damp. Started out in the low 50s with rain. Now in the low 40s with a biting wind. I know that's nothing to you who have suffered such a cruel winter up in New England but for us thin-blooded Southerners it's the pits.

16 degrees right now. Will get colder as the evening progresses I will feel bad for you. 40's and a biting wind is just so damn cold.






Hope the weather warms up, in both our areas.

It's about 2 degrees here now, and it will go down to about Minus 7 overnight.

Tomorrow, it is supposed to warm up to the low 20's, though, so that will be a lot warmer than it was today.

It's getting cooler we were 7° when I went out for gas a little while ago.
Yesterday was almost a beach day just about 40°.
I almost posted a picture of me in my shorts running the snow blower.

Your cardinal in the bamboo in Florida sure looks a lot happier than this cardinal in the snow in Ohio.

(I did not take the picture myself.)

The cardinals are singing for mates in the bamboo chorus.

It's even cold on the Gulf Coast; freezing in the north Houston area. Snow as far south as Huntsville.

House was "popping and banging" last night from the ice build up on the roof. Zero degrees when I left for work. At least there is no new snow and the roads were reasonably clear.

I guess you can tell it's been a long winter when it's 4 degrees and you don't bother to zip up your coat or put on gloves because its "just not that cold out"

Winter has come back to So Cal, as well. Yay! My heater came on last night. It was just under 50°F here this morning.
