Weather in MO

A few days ago the temperature was flirting with 70 degrees F. Today, it's snowing.

Nothing but steady rain (and flooding) for us, as we're on the South-side of the front. My sump-pump has been running every two minutes.

I hope the bad weather is short-lived, because I get sick of your incessant whining.

With the gas guzzlin that gets done in the summer with the RC you have to make it up somehow.

Not that I could talk I have a little 626 that is the greatest little thing. It takes a beating day after day and just asks for more

you ever drive that thing in the snow/ice. Civics blow in bad weather. I actually prefer rwd in the snow, much more predictable. fwd just slides with no warning.

My old Mustang was all over the place in the snow. It would even occasionally break loose in the rain while driving down the highway. My Accord barrels through the snow with little trouble, as long as I'm a bit cautious.

Back on topic, STL is the same way. Our weather is very unpredictable.

No probs for me with FWD. The truck was RWD and it blew, all my cages have been FWD with the exception of a 91 AWD Eclipse Turbo way back in the day

I have owned 4 Civics over the years and the first thing you must do is get rid of the $15 econo death trap tires they have from the factory and get some decent tires (Kuhmos)!! The car still isn't the greatest as it is fairly light, Accords work really well in the snow.

Take care. The Buffalo Ranch is in KS so I think they have been hit already.
