[SYRACUSE 11/7/2007] - First plow / salt sighting --- now what do we do?!?
Yup... driving my Blazer home tonight, I passed a plow dumping piles of salt--- on a BARE ROADWAY and 37F out!
Sooooo, Calling State Farm to put C5 in hibernation mode until (forever) when spring comes.
It's gonna be a looooooooooong winter. I hope some other CNY guys will help me survive 5 months of torchure!
Maybe we can do some things this winter as a group to pass the time...

Damn, that really sucks!! My only advice, move downstate, still in the 40's over here with no sign of snow plows anywhere (hopefully, it'll stay that way).

Alex:
You guys definitely get a longer season. Heck, the leaf peeper cruise has pix with green leaves! This year is sooo strange. In CNY, it is like somebody flipped a breaker to go from summer to winter?!?
I hope to put together a winter indoor go cart race outing or something to pass the time inbetween clearing / driving / dealing with snow.

Today's lake effect sealed the deal. Although the calendar says it is fall, it is now winter in CNY. The lake effect machine is "ON" and the plows have moved snow and been dumping salt all day.
I guess I have to give my C5 a hug and cover (tuck it in) for the winter nap.

Snowed lightly here in PA last night too. Cold and windy still but it's supposed to be almost 60 by next week then back to freezing

Nope, my ZR2 Blazer is designed for this stuff. The C5 is my fair weather toy.
Anyway, hopefully Pitt and I can get some friends together to pass the time while our Vettes sleep.
