    Yes, this is really how we live life day to day in MN. 😂 You do adapt though. Low riding sports cars don’t get you far here.

    Incredible!
    Does these weather conditions also happen in these regions in other years at mid april or is it quite abnormal?

      We sometimes experience a light powdering during April but this much precipitation this far into Spring is very very rare. On this date last year it was 89 degrees.

      It depends year to year, but it’s not that abnormal to see heavy snow in March or April.

    The worst is when you have lots of traffic, you no longer control your fate. My commute is south of the cities, all rural. The Interstate part gets good maintenance, secondary roads usually takes until well after the storm. Snow tires are incredible.

      Learn to drive in the snow. Many people get cocky and think they know how even when they dont so it's a good skill to learn.

      I can drive my forester with good all season tyres and still be able to drive in deep snow, you just need to dump a few psi out of the tyres like 4 to get better grip . . . didn't your daddy teach you nothing Hank ?!!

    If you didn't have AWD or 4WD, you shouldn't be out on the roads in this weather. Why? You should be ticketed for being stupid, not for being stuck. If you don't feel confident in your driving skills in these conditions or your vehicle is not made to navigate 1.5 feet of snow , Stay home.
