Thanks, everyone! I wish I had my SLR with me that day, but the iPhone's camera is pretty damn good (provided it is not dark out).

And yes, Lexi90, my hands were pretty damn cold! I don't think we got as much snow here in Central NJ as you did up there in CT, though.

Anyways, I'm really jealous of you brothas and sistas in the NE area who receive the recent dump from mother nature. wish it was shared with the dmv area, hopefully on the next batch i guess.
Because we can. I'm sorry you live in the DM[V]. I was there last april and it was horrible -- humid as ***** and very bland looking. At least where i was.. Dupont Circle was fun though.

Yeah im in carlsbad so no snow. i drove my wifes all wheel drive RX to palomar mountain to see how it did in snow and when i got there the highway patrol closed it down. i made it to where you start going up the mountain but couldnt go up super lame. i cant imagine living where it snows all the time but i sure would like to see snow couple times a year.

Yes AWD. Factory all seasons. It did great--no problems at all. Using the paddle shifters to slow down coming down an icey mountain worked great as well. We are currently getting slammed with snow here in Nebraska (where I live) and it's getting around like a champ.

I'm sorry but....I love snow! Yes I said it. I love snow. You can layer up but you can only take off so much...Florida, too freaking humid and Cali is OK. lol

Representing Chicago!!!
Love Portland and Denver/Boulder and I hope I move one day...

This thread makes me sad. It's bad enough I have to deal with the snow 5-6 months of the year... Great photos though!
