The problem with yesterdays snow was not that it snowed alot because it didnt. The problem was that it went from 37 degrees to 9 in a matter of hours. All the slush turned to ice. I was driving the GS at 20 mph and it just slowly started to go sideways and before you know it i was facing the car behind me. Black ice sucks, no matter what car you have or what tires you are riding on. Ice is Ice. It took me 2 hours to get into the ES because the doors were frozen shut. When i started it, the steering wheel would not turn because the wheels were so frozen to the ground as was everything else. IT was freaking colldddddddd and everything was frozen.
. Let's hope it doesn't get that bad

Yeah the East side got hit pretty hard with the flash freezing and snow. I went back home to GR in the West side for a couple of days and we only got the freezing and just wind. It's actually been sunny the past couple days, weather still in the teens however, but the sunlight radiation was enough to melt almost all of the snow that fell.
learn to drive and it will be ok. under bad/severe conditions FWD/AWD will be best, but nothing can help you from stupidity. Like i tell everyone, learn to drive.
