Denver Snow - it's back

After a week of "blustery" weather in the UK, the snow in Denver is a bit of a shock to the system. So far, only about 3 or 4 inches where we are, but it's still snowing, and the drive was a little rough in this morning (as in a car 2 cars in front of me did an impromptu 180 spin, causing a little excitement). The snow tires and traction control held up pretty well, and the car is pretty balanced, so I've been able to catch any slides. However, the temperature is only going to hit 18 degrees farenheit today (that's -8 C in your money mother), and that's the high, so there'll be plenty of ice around later.

Hopefully the snow sticks around in a car park or two until tonight though, as I fancy a little drifting practise with the tracion control off - stay tuned...
