I'm starting to think that maybe that groundhog can't really predict the weather. What a lying piece of s.

Some of the biggest storms on record in the northeast occur in early April.

Groundhog shadow is just a joke and never accurate since day 1. My kids love to look at the groundhog but never believe the predication ....

I wouldn't do it
The rubber used for performance tires need to have the higher temps to work well. I'm in the process of selecting new tires for track days, and I'm getting a lesson in rubber compunds.

Track days? What kind of car are you piloting around the track?
Yes, I drive the E60 on track days.

I'm anxious to put the 20's back on but i dont want to act prematurely. I would be pissed at myself if we got more snow and my wintersports were in the garage.
Your thoughts????

Damn it. I asked this exact question on the m5board. I was hoping that the Northeasterners would say 'sure, switch 'em out now'. I can't stand these Blizzaks anymore. Sure, good for what they were intended for i.e.the snow/slush, but horrible in every other respect. I think I can only hold out until the end of March.
