Its soooooo cold my skin is reacting to it......I need my humidity back! :angry:

I spend 80% of my time in my basement/office/comfy living room......Its 3 walls underground, doesn't make for the warmest(but its great in summer)....No fun, but no fun stuff upstairs....

Poor car is all cold out there too......I think I need to widen the door and let her in here!

And I do hope you all had a merry Christmas.
We are doing ALA a Christmas story and getting chinese food takeout for dinner!(AKA good excuse for Eleanor to get street time).

I'm with everyone else, what is with the snow down here? It got up to about 40 today, enough for my pipes to unfreeze. There was still snow and some ice on the ground when I went to Dallas today. We don't live in Texas to have snow in the winter!

Yeah, we've had about an inch of snow on the ground, not on the road, for the last couple of days. Not great for Texas!

In Upstate New York 22 degrees but not a bit of snow on the ground. They are predicting it will be in the 40's all this coming week. If we get rain and wash the salt coating off the roads I may sneek a Stang ride in. I feel sorry for you down south with all that snow. Come way up north and escape that bad weather!

Hey, we've warmed up to a balmy 42 degrees today. The big thaw is on.

Heading for 72 by Friday. Let the ice melt, the roads dry, and unleash those ponies!!

Go on, April, you can take Eleanor out to play today. And be sure to wash her later this week when it warms up some. That rear badge is filthy!!

well, here's a lil tale for all of you doubters of the 05's abilities in the snow. I headed up to Buffalo NY for the weekend, and just got back today. 1 1/2 feet of snow in some areas and the mustang handled beautifully with the TCS on. Had to turn it off to get going, but once it was going and the TCS was on it was a beautiful sight. Probably the only 05 mustang in Buffalo at the time on the road.

There's a couple of inches in Va Beach today, the weather folks on the local channels are feeling a bit stupid right about now. Needless to say I'm glad I was able to find an apartment complex that had a garage for rent too.

We got 15 inches of snow here. They even closed I70 and I75 for awhile, too many stuck or abanded cars. The salt trucks could hardly get the snow cleared for all the cars on the highway.

The funniest thing I saw on the news was a Hummer stuck/abanded in a median. There were also many 4 wheelers stuck. My father inlaw workd for a towing company and at 3 a.m. Thirsday morning the sheriff told him that he was not allowed to move another inch they were closing the highway, so he had to sleep in his recker on I70 until day break before he could move again. When he got bak to the shop he had 175 tows waiting for him. Just him. There were 5 others guys that had there list of towes also.

Saw some traffic on 95 coming from the southern part of the state with ice and snow caked all over it! Glad it missed us in NVA but sorry it hit you!

I am getting my 05 painted with stripes and I have to drop the car off with the painter at 830am. I do not want any stuff on the road until after my car is at the painters.

It is under freezing here and I'm praying for no snow.

If you didn't get it yet you won't (so they say) it's all on it's way out. They are saying sunny most of next week. Love the Mineral Gray, looking forward to the stripes pictures, good luck. You're getting them painted on???
