I hear you! My GS is in hibernation with 5 miles on the clock. It's 3 degrees, and I have plowed snow twice in the last few days. The forum and YouTube is all I have until March or April.

This is a nice problem to have though, admittedly.

45 and sunny sound good right about now! Hope there is a good amount of snow for skiing if that's what your there for.

It's 15 degrees in Western MD but the roads are clear. I'm headed to Outback for an early dinner in my C7 equipped with Conti DWS06s. Happy New Year!

It's 7 F here today. One of the coldest winters in years. I went out for a rip (with snow tires) and had a blast.

I won't post a pic as some forum members might vomit if they saw the guck and snow all over my paint.

Hopefully there will be a early spring and you can get that baby out earlier than normal. Enjoy
