Canadian Winter - 6G Celicas Forums

Well we're having a bit of a warm-spell up here in Saskatchewan, Canada... As a result we saw some freezing rain last night. I woke up to about 1cm of it on my car... Impossible to get off with an ice scraper but when I got fed up with the car and slammed my hand down on the roof I got a nice little shatter pattern in the ice. Looks really neat. So I did a few more, took some pictures, and now here they are...

haha.. i know how you feel... it went from being -47 with windchill, to +2 ...OVERNIGHT! so today we had like.. rain, then snow, then freezing rain, then more snow, and now it's back to 70km/h wind and snowing.. and cold.. >tongue.gif>
Lol I wouldn't hit it with an ice scraper. And the car was already partially warmed up so it was like there was a thin layer of water between the ice and the car. No way I'd do that if it was really cold.
haha i had the same **** on my car when i woke up. its still on my car. in SK in january if its not freezing cold, it freezing rain.
instead of scraping my windows for half an hour, i just let my good ol toyota heater run for 15 minutes, then scraped the rest off. it was all soft and easy to get off. and my car was really warm
hahahahahah

wannabe you crack me up

If you had an image of the virgin mary, you could have frozen your hood and sol it on ebay... like that grilled cheese.
Very funny >confused.gif> Welll if you like to damage your car.... Well done

I heard it could look nice as well if you would crash your icecovered car with 20mph against a snow covered tree.

I don`t get it why are you hiting your car???
