A Foray into the Storm

The roads are empty except for plows, of which there seem to be an extraordinary number for a town of 4,700 people. Big winds are in the forecast but the snow hasn't started really blowing yet. I had to drive three or four miles to rescue my daughter from a birthday party, and the snow is falling so fast and the air is so cold that even with the defroster blowing as hard as it could, the windshield froze up. But other than that, is there a better car in the snow than a Subaru? About six inches have fallen.
