    Sign of a windy snowstorm. I guess we would call that a blizzard.

    Can't believe it's a snow day for my daughter. First one ever I believe.

    Got a snow day also. Had 6" of snow on the car when I cleaned it off and another 1" on it now. Going try and finish my switches in my center console today.

    Days like today make me love my uber-tiny insulated garage that is just big enough to house my truck.

    I seem to recall from back in the day when I was actually looking at wheels, not all 16s will fit depending on the design. Buyer beware, especially if you're looking at steelies.

    $16 is pretty good. Here's another option at roughly that http://www.amazon.com/Grip-Heavy-Du...UTF8&qid=1450189480&sr=8-6&keywords=tow+strap That's the one I got a while back, also for $24. I have to say I wasn't quite prepared for a 4" strap though, but can't seem to find a tow strap with that weight rating that is any thinner.

    I woke up an hour ago and it was fairly clear outside. Had an email from my client to delay going in. Checked radar and everything east of FTC was blue. I thought, hey it's already passed. Hit play on radar. Mass of blue moves west. I now have horizontal snow outside my window with a 20% reduction in visibility. Thinking I'll be working from home for my other client today.

    @thefatkid, I've been doing some research. So this is the correct way to do it?

    Always. It's even better when your armored up. You don't Care about trees as much.

    You do have to worry about fork lifts and @aero3685 pulling out out though, that's the only thing that hurts you.
