We had the first real snow fall this season. There was a couple of inches of snow, it’s very sticky and wet. By the time I got to work it was drizzling instead of snowing. That means it should be pretty icy out there later.

What’s my point?

Snow tires.

Get some.

They make a huge difference.

HUGE.

I can’t emphasize that enough.

We swapped our all season tires with actual snow tires and the difference is something else. It’s almost like there is no snow on the ground. That said, there is still snow and ice, so don’t drive like an asshole even if you have snow tires on.

EDIT: With great awesomeness comes great idiocy. I should have turned around and looked out the window because it’s actually snowing, not raining anymore. That’s a good thing. Freezing rain sucks.
