| great tip I just learned this trick for all of you folks who happen to live in the North with lots of snow. If you park your car outside while in a snow storm leave your wiper blades pulled out from the windshield. When you go back to your car to clean off the snow your blades will be saved from being frozen to the glass. Unless less of course, you have so much snow that it covers the ends of your blades. LOL I'm sure most of you smarter people already knew this, but I didn't. |

| We noticed the car dealers had all of the wiper blades pulled up like that. Great idea!

| Yes, I hope all of you in the 1/3 part of the country who are or going to be hit with the next extreme storm stay warm and safe! The next time GA expects snow, I will remember this.

| Well with the weather today we have to hope the windshield wipers dont freeze in that upright position. The weather is horrible today and much worse to come tonight and tomorrow. Not as bad here in the city as you guys upstate.... and looks like another STORM for saturday. A "all snow event" as they are calling it today!!! |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I just saw several neighbors with their windshields like that and figured it was for that reason. Now I know! I never thought to do that. Thanks
