Preparing for some getting stuck stories lol. It's damn nasty outside.

I worked from home in the morning so I would not need to drive with all the other sheep.

The snow in Hamilton was much worse than Oakville, and add on the drifting snow onto the roads. Didn't get stuck or bullied around by half assed plowed roads. However, had some ass-clenching experiences mounting the on-ramp's pile of snow.

If we don't see a GoPro view of a 720* donut in a parking lot, I will be disappointed.

I never worry about my own car and how it handles, the BRZ just requires a light throttle, light steering, and low speeds. I worry about the 4x4 SUV's driving up my chuff, and I know they'll be sliding into me if I have to slow down. Also, when they decide to change lanes on the highway while going 110 and spin out, that's always fun to have to dodge them.

I see more SUV up agains the barriers and in the ditches than any other type of vehicle.

Went to work from Victoria park to Keele/401. Recapping....

I went VSC for that 3 inch of fresh white death snow, car was sideways at 20/km on local to 401, trucks stop giving a fuck and just drove on whatever lanes, I was cruising at 40 at best. 404/401 ramp uphill to 401 bayview, that has got to be the scariest climb of my life, car throttle was stuck at 21/km, VSC off and I am about 30 degree sideways while climbing, cars around me gtfo quick when they see me rolling. Other than that, my drive was predictable and definitely manageable. However, I am now stuck at my work parking lot because I can't get up that hill where employees park. FML.

Drive from Hamilton to Burlington wasn't TOO bad this morning, I'm sure the drive home is going to suck balls.
