You got some work to do man.

On a side note, are there any good filipino restaurants around NY?

it makes clearing off the windshield easier, you wont have to go digging to lift them once the snow hits.

I picked up this little trick after seeing all the cars at the LIRR parking lots the same way just before a snowstorm.

Why put the wipers up? I have seen that a couple of times now. Is it so they dont stick to the windshield or so the snow plow dont mistake it for just a snow hill or something?

I had to turn the wipers on to clear the condensation off the windshield.



BTW, that's suntan lotion on the mirror.

+1

This way they don't ice and stick to the windshield, becoming a real pain in the ass to remove without damaging them. No more scraping until the scraper stops, then hunting/digging them out to put them up anyway so you can finish scraping.

Well... here in FL, it's a nice high of 60* and low of 41*.  Tampa



My house (just slightly north of Tampa) it's H 60* / L 36*.  



Weather is comfortable down here.  




Good luck with all that snow.  At least you have enough to build an igloo.

I feel for you that snow looks heavy and wet.  At least here the snow is usually dry and powdery.

Wow.  And I was pissed I had to use a credit card to scrape a little frost off my rental in Charlotte the other day.



Have fun cleaning that crap off!

I just park in the  garage so I don't have to scrape my windows.  Drive the  snow blower up and down the drive once or twice and it's all done.

Can't say I miss the weather.  I'm from CT but moved to Orlando when I graduated HS.  I'm going back in a couple weeks and can't wait.  I'm actually hoping we get something like this while I'm there and score a couple days of extra vaca.

A Ural would be cool, but there is no need to sell your KLR
