I was up at 9-10 blowing snow yesterday as I was afraid that today would be much worse. I'm glad I did it as today I have half of what I would have otherwise. The wind was making things way worse.

Yep, we've got about a foot on the ground and it hit -30F here last night.

Good to hear your driving it in the snow though. These are some of the best all weather cars in the world when you have the right tires.

Is it ok to leave the rear wing up in conditions like that when not using the car?

My TT gets driven in the snow everyday, but parks in the garage. My other cars have not been so lucky
