sick of this cold crap and snow, had enough. You may want to break that ice sculpture carefully for if it melts and breaks just right may damage your exhaust tubing hitting it when the ice melts. My furnace vent is plastic and has ever winter ice hanging down but ONLY is 2 feet off the ground is all, but always an icesicle hanging down most of that 2 feet.
my kid slid off the road last night in ONLY 1 inch of slushy, icy snow that came down yesterday (first rain changing to ICE) and luckily hit a somewhat soft snowbank doing very minor damage to the car, plastic front bumper cracked in the middle. He buried the car front end all the way back to the exhaust lifting the entire car UP about 4 inches mostly high sided in the middle. NO airbag went off luckily hitting that snow bank head on he said doing around 20 mph.
He called and said he is fine and the car mostly but unable to get out by himself. Luckily he was about 3 feet from hitting a telephone pole and if that snowbank alongside road going around that sharp corner doing 20 mph was NOT there, he would have been down in the woods some 40-50 feet am sure and hit a tree. My 4wd truck going out to unbury him almost slid off the road as well doing 30 mph and NO brakes working when the herd of Fing deer crossed the road in front of me unable to slow down, lucky NO deer collision again for me. I had to bring shovels and let the kid unbury the car pretty much by himself taking an hour while I hooked up the tow strap on frame of the rear axle and pulled him out with the 4wd truck.
MAN, to lift UP the car 4 inches off the ground with tires not hardly touching the road/snow high siding that much in the middle of the car due to snow piled up underneath in middle luckily NO damage underneath carriage, or so I hope anyways. It ran fine today and tracked straight and used a few zip ties to hold the front grille/bumper in place better just cracked and separated in the middle part of plastic front bumper.
He is DONE for next 2 months driving at night and not going up north 2 hours seeing his buddies either today and tomorrow, grounded for now until further notice.
Winter cannot come DONE soon enough, have stuff to do around the house and on the cars and prefer to work in 50 degree temps, not 32 degrees and below outside with ice/snow/dirt/sludge melting underneath the cars while working on them from underneath.
