Forecast for the evening-
1-2.5 feet of snow over the next day.
Sounds fine to me!
I'm fine. Everyone I know is fine. But there are REAL idiots out there who not only don't know how to drive, but don't realize the importance of good tires. I've gotten a BMW 5-series to drive very comfortably on glare-ice over an inch thick. How? Blizzaks. It was about 28F out though, so their little funky super-porous tread was still doing its job.
Mom'll be driving the Excursion tomarrow rather than the Passat. Which worries me. The Ex's tires are crappy. The Passats? A set of weeks old Yokohama YK520's siped by Discount Tire. That thing does things I can't try in 2wd mode in the Terc. Throw her in 4wd though, and prepare to eat my powder!
