IF there is any accumulation, but I'm hoping there won't be. Stupid Z-rated Summer Performance tires with aggressive V-tread pattern... uuuuugh... last time I tried taking them into the snow (first snow fall of last year) my car slid 20 feet into oncoming traffic and I only braked at 10MPH. Time to put the snow tires on!

| Don't worry about putting those snow tires on yet. Borho went over it. He said that there will be 0" to a trace of snow overnight - eventhough other places are saying that there might be some. He showed us all the charts and stuff. I think he is right. Especially since it never seems to snow when I am around. (I probably just jinxed it )Plus, that TAF is really seems to be really far off! How could there be light rain and snow in about an hour (22z) when it is 44 degrees right now? I guess they are getting it pretty bad in the western part of the state though. Something like 17" of snow and building, 40mph winds, zero visibiliy, freezing fog, etc. Ugh...

| HA! No, I think it would have to be just *slightly* warmer. 85ish. I have the little three day forecast of Grand Forks and California right next to each other. It is wierd seeing the differences between the two. CA is generally something like "Sun, Sun, Sun - 85" and Grand Forks is like, "Rain, Snow, Partly Cloudy - 34"

I was roommates with Roundout and when we lived in Smith, we had a snowball fight with the Johnstone/Fulton girls. There was this one girl, that happened to carry substantial mass, named Kate that went around tackling all the boys. We both were tackled by what seemed like the entire front line of the Greenbay Packers.She might still be lurking...
