Colorado native, we have about the same amount of snow where I'm at and it's supposed to hit -5 degrees tonight. I grew up driving in snow but won't drive during the first couple storms because of the transplants. I used to love spinning doughnuts in empty parking lots during the first storm but not now. Last night I counted over a dozen idiots wrecked in the ditch. Same thing when monsoon season would hit in Arizona, every cheap SOB with bald tires crashing.
My biggest concern in this weather is finding a cord long enough to plug in the block warmer on my diesel and hoping in the morning I remembered the night before.
I just go out on really cold nights and let the car run for about 15 minutes every 4 hours, it works. Not deisel though. Just got home, drove through the squalls at 3 degrees, snow stopped full moon sitting high. People were behaving themselves on the roads tonight, but I was behind a MAsshole, obviously with no snow tires, they were doing about 25 and still slipping. All season tires are not for the north country! You need snow tires, and better yet, snow tires with studs!
