I commute over a mountain pass that takes 3 plows and the world's largest snow blower to keep open in the Winter, and it still shuts down sometimes. Each day I pass directly in front of my favorite ski area (Mount Rose) which causes me to use many vacation days.

10 minutes from my office is the Diamond ski area. 20 minutes past my office is Squaw Valley, where the Winter Olympics were held in 1964. 30 minutes in the other direction is Heavenly.

One of our friends that lives just down the road is the Marketing Director at the Kirkwood Ski Resort.

In other words, yes, it gets that cold here.

Surely there is a better looking option... Perhaps a power inverter with a space heater under your hood.

By the way, what is that on the front edge of your hood?
