Stay bunkered down and warm. Looks like it's a doosie.

 

[purplestuff]

Its windy enough so I don't have to clean off truck but the snow drifts are gonna be deep

 

[toyotafan]

Doesn't look too bad yet, how long is it supposed to last?

We have a 24 hr blizzard warning

 

[purplestuff]

Beds almost full of snow

My wife's Tahoe has a snow drift closing in on it

 

[toyotafan]

It's sunny and 80°F today in dfw, lol.

 

[purplestuff]

Snows still falling 27 hours later .the wind isn't as gusty anymore and my wife wanted to see if she could just drive away .she wasn't parked in the right spot for that.

is that Tahoe 4 wheel drive? I had a company car that was a two wheel drive Tahoe 5 or 6 years ago, that thing did terrible in snow and ice. Looks like quite a bit of snow, and that looks like nice compactible snow not really though super white dry powdery stuff.

 

[purplestuff]

Its mostly powder snow but was packed in by the wind . yeah Tahoe has 4 wheeldrive but there's ice under the snow and a drop off in that side of the drive way so it was just pulls it down hill

 

[purplestuff]

Yeah im gonna have to cancel on having that BBQ this weekend

 

[toyotafan]

Yeah, the best snow and ice 4x4 I ever had was my jeep CJ5, but that's understandable as it was designed for that and not for comfort, can't haul the family around in that.

 

[purplestuff]

My dad had an old 60s Jeep I think it was a wagonr or somethin along the lines of lifted 4x4 wagon that jeeo made back then . but it really al comes down to ground clearance and traction

 

[purplestuff]

OK so that storms been cleaned up now we expect 6-10 inches from tomorrow into Saturday and a nothr storm possibly Tuesday as well current temp 1 with clear Sky's itsfunny how it can besi cold when the sun is shining and warmer with overcast
