Bscott94 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Thank you, Chris. I don't have it as bad as some but it's -12 in Indianapolis. I had trouble pulling the door open at the office this morning because of the wind. ObsessedDetailer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have two disgusting cars. I can't wait for a few days for 40-50 degree weather so I can clean them up. 8675309'SS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This weekend is supposed to be 40-50 degree weather. Problem is it’ll melt the snow and make more of a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are -13 with -33 wind chill, and it’s cold AF to me. So I can’t even imagine colder, @Mbrazelton ! Brrrrrr....

blcksilv08 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Thanks Chris! Not as bad as many places here in Cincinnati but as a heavy truck tech I spent a lot of time outside today in the 0 degree before wind chill weather getting trucks running. Not my idea of a good time. My only solace is we have a drain inside the building so I try to wash my truck at least every couple weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ls1transam Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Temps will be -5 for me in the morning and I’ll be outside on a forklift at 7am. The windchills will make it worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Slow Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I snapped the pic as I exited my SS at the office this morning. Forecast for tonight is -31*F with 2-4” of snow Thursday afternoon. Fortunately Saturday is to be in the 40s with rain and even warmer on Sunday. Both the SS and the wife’s Beast will be clean this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Minus 7 here in PA right now. My white Cadillac is black. But Monday it's supposed to be 53 with showers late in the day. Maybe she'll get a bath then. Stay warm everyone. Find someone or something to snuggle up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to go back. I could wash every morning if wanted to! The other car hasn't been washed since around Thanksgiving I'd say. It was fine until I drove on the interstate after a slushy snow and got those nasty racing stripes all over the front end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Bowtie Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 I can't tell you the last time I washed my truck? 11 degree warm up coming into work this morning, only -11 with a feels like -25. Time to break out the shorts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
