They say it's supposed to hit here in Cleveland around 3 am. Buffalo is on the eastern end of lake Erie and they always get hammered with lake effect snow, this storm will obliterate them.
Stay safe, the blowing snow is making the roads pretty dangerous around here. Visibility is poor too.

Thank you. I head out to work about 4:30 so the roads should not be to bad then. I dread the ride home at 1:30 in the afternoon. I'll be OK tho, my DD is an awd explorer. The mustang is in hibernation until spring.

Today I gave my GT-350 a final hand buff after the last application of F-11 cured, hooked up the CTEK, then covered it up before "Winter Apocalypse" hits tonight..... ☹

Looking GREAT Ray! It's -10 with a -36 degree wind chill right now. I haven't finished my final wash and cover because I have some things to finish maintenance wise. So very grateful to have a heated garage with electricity...

Sacrilegious to let snow touch these cars. 😲
Or rain. Blessed to be able to keep mine inside and for favorable weather conditions. Also makes me appreciate driving it more when it’s not every day.

What is this winter storage that you speak of?

With ambient temperatures hovering around 60F the last day or so in south Jersey, well above the 45F temperature minimum for its Cup 2 tires, with no precipitation forecast, and with the roads both clear and dry, I roused my Shelby out of its short-lived deep-sleep mode hibernation in my heated garage and drove it for a few hours in the afternoon.

Nothing like a spell of mild temperatures and dry roads during the winter to bring "miles of smiles" behind the wheel as an anti-depressant!

Couldn't do that here on LI. The roads are full of salt and sand they threw down last week in anticipation of the big freeze storm we got. Along with many low lying areas got flooded with storm surge. It's not like when you wash these cars, you get underneath them.. Once salt gets under there, it stays there.

Enjoy it man, you’re going to get hammered next week.
Happy New Year

Cmon now. That’s a cruel joke what Ford did to that GT350.
Anyone caught driving their GT350/500 in the snow, should have their cars removed by their local Mustang club.😂
