Default Dang weather

It was almost 80 degrees in San Antonio AGAIN today. Many posts here involve complaints about the weather, cold, snow, etc. I want to join this club of complainers.

Unfortunately, we don't get any snow down here. We have had only about a week of 30 degree weather. It is supposed to be 80 or so tomorrow.

How do I join this club???

By the way, I drove downtown this morning, and I think I saw every other vette on the road somewhere in the metro area.

Please consider this my complaint about the weather.

Ed

C'mon, give those of us that live in the far North a break!!! Wow, what I would give for 80 degrees! We have had a couple of months of rough winter, 15 degrees (for the high), snow and now it is raining like crazy and this is probably mild compared to some members who live even further north or northeast. Count your blessings!

Hoping to get her out in the next month!!

Wanted to drive the Z today but it is starting to snow here. I have no desire for this car to meet a jersey barrier like my Z28 did!

Ed,

I hope all your hoses melt and the tar bubbles up on the roads causing the rocks to blast your front end and windshield giving you the opposite grief we are getting up in the "Ice Age"!

Guess I don't really mean that but almost as crazy as your thread..

You missed one. Let's hope my serpentine belt brakes too.
