Supposed to be in the upper 40's and low 50's here later this week. Hopefully, most of the snow will melt.

It is suppose to rain all day today. Hopefully it will wash all the salt off the roads so I can take the Vette out this weekend.

I sure relate to crappy weather and not driving the Vette. Having just purchased a few months ago and only being able to drive it 3 times since is making me CRAZY!!! Snow then Salt then Snow then Salt, etc. Thinking about studding the Goodyear run flats, might be a good use for them after all!!!

We'll need several heavy rains to wash all that crap off the roads.
