Hm ... AZ is not the first state that comes to mind when you think "snow" ;) At least not mine ...
Apart from that, snow can be nice for some drifting on an empty parking lot, with the beater ... but I'd welcome some nice, 70+ degree weather, too ... ;)

I have seen snow in July.
If it was warm it would not bother me, wish it would snow about 3 to 5 feet high with the temperature in the 80's

I just wish they'd leave that salt off the road! And this week is the first time I get to use the 4x4 to its full so fun for me.

Ok, I am officially sick of the snow, too! It can end any day now, but I actually said that after such an awesome Summer, we were gonna have a terrible Winter. I guess I better be careful what I wish for! :shock:

it works the way around:
'Im Winter viel Schnee bringt im Sommer gut Klee' :wink:

HAHA! Yeah, snow and AZ aren't normally linked. I, however, live at 7,000 ft where it gets right chilly during the winter. :P

Yuck??? Think about all of the drifting you can do without destroying your tires! Just use a beater for when you go snowbank-bashing. I used to love hauling ass towards a huge snowbank at the end of a parking lot and then whipping the wheel around and stomping on the gas. If you time it just right, you can bounce of the snowbank sideways without damage. OK, that was over 12 years ago in a Granada. :oops:
Correction, I did get some damage once, I peeled a tire off the rim and didn't notice until a couple of miles later. The snow was over 12 inches (32 cm) deep at the time. I knew that the car would be slower but it still didn't feel right. That was a PITA to change...

Would love to do some drifting, but it's hard to find a parking lot or something that's empty ...

well, from the forecast it looks like we'll have plenty of chances for drifting ... supposed to get a lot of snow the next couple days ... some 8 inches for the next 24 hours ...
