The difference between you and I; I realize that winter tires are of no added cost and provide greatly improved traction for several months a year, there's a reason why they're called winters not snows.
This. Why don't more people realize this, instead of worrying about wearing down the tread of their precious snow tires like they were studded with gold? The tread you wear on the snow tires you save on your summers; in the end the cost pretty much evens out. Plus you get the peace of mind and traction in cold temperatures especially at night.
pff... the more time I spend in the Alps the more I realize all the snow we get in Vancouver is shit. Pussy snow.
Here, when it snows... it SNOWS. Like 50+cm in 24hours. Oh ya.
Same here with Japan. This is how our winter is like. 17 meters and counting so far.

Global BC | Snow, blast of winter predicted for Metro Vancouver (http://www.globaltvbc.com/snow%20blast%20of%20winter%20predicted%20for%20met ro%20vancouver/6442585018/story.html)
METRO VANCOUVER - Lower Mainlanders hoping to put away their winter coats and boots may be in for a surprise as a cold front has been predicted by Accuweather.com to bring more flurries early next week.
The U.S.-based weather site predicts almost 5 cm of snow could fall in Vancouver next Monday, Feb. 27.
The snow is forecast to last until next Thursday and could continue to dump on the local ski mountains, which have enjoyed a late-season spike in people carving up their slopes.

I never understand why people swap out their winter tires before the winter season is over. Like Mindbomber said, they're winter tires, not snow tires. You get far better traction in low temperatures even if it's above 0* and there have been mornings where I've seen neighbour's cars covered in ice, even over the past couple weeks.
All I can say is that if I'm hit during either a cold snap or a snow fall by one of you guys who decided to swap out your winter tires, there will be hell to pay.

Winter tires go on my car when the average temp drops below 8* degrees ish...
Here in Bavaria, all cars must have winter tires on all four corners from late Nov to Easter otherwise it's something like a 60eur fine per corner.

Funny how in Vancouver when they say 15cm, 2-3cm usually falls. But here where I live when they say 10cm, 60cm ends up falling. It's completely backwards, they are too conservative on the forecast. It's happened a few times now...
No snow anywhere along the freeway between Burnaby and Abbotsford.

It's snowing in Abbotsford now. Big flakes, but the ground is warm so not sticking. It's actually coming down fast/hard.
Snow formed high up, but barely surviving at ground level. It'll be gone by afternoon.......... at least hoping so. My comuter car has terrible all seasons. We're talking so bad I might as well have slicks on.

Be careful what you say in this thread. People will castrate you for even considering driving through Metro Vancouver without winter tires. Its borderline criminal to some drivers that you don't store an extra set of winter tires for every car in your garage. Because everyone should have a garage. :eek: :lol
That being said, the wet stuff is coming down in North Burnaby, and no, it does not look like cocaine. :smug:

It's wet snow, feels sort of like driving in very heavy rain, a little bit was sticking in Aldergrove and Mt. Lehman but nothing lower down.

Came in from the studio to coal harbour this morning at 6am, Boundary Rd was a disaster, everyone was going 5-10kms, you could tell they were on summer or all seasons, so frustrating since I had snow tires and was stuck behind these idiots.
Saw 2 cars stuck on the incline on 29th/Joyce from Boundary and 1 car stuck sideways on that slight incline in the left turn lane on Boundary going to 22nd and 4 cars spun off the road, funny enough, 3 off them were BMW 3 series.

Coming down SFU was like a parking lot. Some buses were stuck going up the hill from Hastings.
Hastings was also a parking lot due to a stalled car.
People were driving 10 km/h down side roads cause they had stock no weather tires on.
Hit a few patches that rocked my ABS even though I had snow tires on.
Must have been at least 2 inches of snow up on SFU this morning.

Good thing my winters are still on.
Just before the bridge, it all stops. Sunny all the way into Abby this morning. I took a chance and drove the little car today. ABS kicked in a few times down the hills around Burnaby, but I took it easy until I got to the main roads, which were clear.

No need to feel guilty, friend. Sometimes, your own safety comes first. There will be others who have the time and proper equipment to lend a hand. I assume there were others on the road/hill? Need to call 911 if it looks bad and you're the only one to have seen it.
Other than that................hope everyone who had to drive in the Vancouver/Burnaby area, had a safe journey this morning.

The question is, are they still with their all seasons tires?
If so, the tires becomes useless if its below 5 or 7 degrees

:rukidding: Really? I don't see any? Can someone please post a current pic of the snow that MindBomber is talking about. Is anyone having problems getting traction on any streets in Metro Vancouver right now? Are buses able to make it up to SFU today? That pic of SFU is from yesterday as clearly stated, with a bus. Go up there now and you can see the grass is green and roads are bare.
I think MindBomber is trying to boost his own ego and justify his need for winter tires when it is clear that the winter season is pretty much over and winter tires were not needed at all. :alone:
