What do people that are for the first time moving to a place where is snows need to know? - eviltoast

If you never lived where it snows and were moving North to where it does snow, what would you have liked to have known? What would you do to prepare?

    Find an empty parking lot before it snows. Verify there are no obstacles in it or find a large area with no obstacles. Wait until it snows. Hit that bitch up and learn about how your car handles and how to recover when you fuck up.

    Make sure to bring a shovel and maybe some boards or whatever others suggest in case you get yourself stuck.

      My wife and I were once at a day long event a few hours north and it snowed pretty heavy. Didn’t even think about the car until we walked up to see the tires almost completely covered. It was late and the whole town pretty much shut down, so all I had to use was a window scraper.

      Definitely keep a shovel in the car.
