I know I can't be the only one suffering here. It's a whopping 22 degrees here this morning in NJ and as much as I enjoy coming on here and reading up it's sort of depressing watching what all you in the warm weather get to do while up here in the north east it's freezing.

Done rant, please continue with your regular scheduled program.

I feel your pain, I'm 4 hours North of you.....Sad...:(
 
I'm living vicariously through the year round detailers. Hope to be able to work on our cars by Easter time.

Its around 27 degrees this morning on Long Island.

Feel your pain, I am in Staten Island. I am so done with the winters, snow, rain ...............etc. I hate it. Every year I get the winter blues, I think I have seasonal affective disorder.............lol.

Haven't taken the Shelby out in months, can't wait for spring.
 
There should be some sort of cold weather support group.

I think this is the support group! I know this weekend is going to be snowy/rainy but I'm pretty sure next weekend is going to be perfect for a rinseless wash...maybe even drag out the pressure washer.

It was 21 when I got up at 5 but it's up to 26 now.....I'm praying for rain this weekend....
 
I know this is my support group. It's nice being able to come on here and see some nice clean cars that aren't covered in snow and ice.

22* now but we were under blizzard warnings Tuesday and Wednsday. 20 inches of snow from that.

I'll just say, I HATE THIS S*&^!

Just measured, 8.2"! At least it's not real cold this morning, 20*.

Wednsday morning was, -9*.

Oh well, in 3-4 months we'll be bit**ing about how hot and humid it is...LOL!

Stay warm my friends.

I'm in the Poughkeepsie area upstate NY. It's killing me getting all this new stuff and not able to try it out.
 
Going to Florida next week to visit my parents. One of the things I am looking forward to is dragging some clay across the hood of my father's car. Cheap thrills indeed.
 
I'm in PA. It been in the 20s here. I detail anyway and find a way. I go to the pay-N-spray and use their water to blast off the dirt and clean wheels and wells. Then I do a GDWM rinseless. You can do this down to the low 20s before stuff will start freezing.

I drag all my stuff there. Even if its going to rain tomorrow, its that much cleaner for next time. Don't let it get you down. Unless its in the single digits, there are ways of doing it

I'm headed the now:

Hardcore detailer.

When I'm off like today, I can't stand sitting around watching TV or doing nothing.

Yeah, I keep my Lamborghini and Ferrari off the forum, because I don't want to make anyone jealous. :)

Yeah, I'm looking for companionship with the bourgeoisie. I really have a fully equipped, air/electric plumbed 4 car headed garage with a waste to DI water recycling system.

Special compartments open up on the walls from both sides of the vehicle (and ceiling) and a robotic arms hands me the Rupe's and polish of my choice.

Best part? When I'm done the maid cleans up any mess and washes all my towels by hand.

I'm just using the pay-n-spray today looking for friends.

Next time I'm at that particular pay-n-spray I'll look for a guy in a smoking jacket and a fez.
