Fortunately, in this part of Texas we don't get a lot of snow. My Z spends most of winter in my shop. I drive my late wife's SUV. If there is significant snow, and since we don't have much in tjecwsy of snow removal, I drop air pressure down to about 25 psi and drive slowly. Worked well when I lived in NYC...
Well. this did not age well...We were visited by a weekend of sleet a d snow , temps in single digit F, with a low of -1°. Overnight it turned to ice and. in a town of 6,000. the city's snow response was to keep the 3 or so main streets relatively clear, and the rest of us on neighborhood streets were on our own. I couldn't get out of my driveway Saturday and was barely able to get out Sunday. Temps rose into the 20s Monday and Tuesday, the snow and ice turned to slush during the day, but 10° and below temps over night left us with sheet ice during the day. My Z3 is in my shop , and the sliding doors wouldn't open , the guides being filled with ice. Temps are up in the 49s and 59s for the next few days, so things should improve.
