| Re: Weather in MO 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. |

| Re: Weather in MO that weird weather isn't happening everywhere. weird weather is the norm up here. we're used to it. as the saying goes about weather in New England, if you don't like it wait a minute.

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  |

Civics blow in bad weather. I actually prefer rwd in the snow, much more predictable. fwd just slides with no warning.

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. |

The car still isn't the greatest as it is fairly light, Accords work really well in the snow. |
