Last week we set records for 80 degree days in April and this morning we have wet snow falling, Weather whiplash.

That's happening here at the end of the week here. Might even get some 10cm snow on Monday - and until Friday still +11...15C which is pretty nice for April. Mon-Wed next week +1 max...

I still have my winter tires (friction, not studs) on, and not gonna change them quite yet!

Is yours a mandatory changeover 16 April (weather dependent) as in Sweden?

No. Here winter tires are mandatory (if winter conditions) from the beginning of November to the end of March, and that's when studs are allowed as well. Friction-type winter tires are easier, they are never forbidden. But of course summer tires are better in rain, and winter tires would wear out faster, too.

They changed the rules less than 10 years back. Can't even remember the old one.
 
@Cindy027
Call me crazy, but I'm fascinated buy the small differences in our English language... You put the date before the month and some others say 'tyres', some have 24hr times
(18:00)=3 pm & Celsius? Yeah, right. It's taught in our schools, but old farts like me...gotta pull out a calculator!
 
And to anyone living more south and wondering about the need to change tires - all-season tires aren't enough for real winter condition with plenty of snow and ice, which is why they don't count in winter. And actually plenty of sleet is the worst. I've crashed once when there was 5cm of sleet one spring morning on my commute, despite slowed speed and having studs. The car just skied on the sleet. (That's when I bought my current car.)

Said about all-season tires: "While they are not a substitute for genuine winter tires, which are necessary for stable driving in a lot of snow, sleet and ice, they are also not a high performance tire for serious summertime driving. " source

I don't really think they use those in Canada, either...

We had hailstorms here Saturday evening. I had to drive home through a pretty nasty one. A friend who lives a little north of here showed pictures of golf ball-sized hail. 😯

Glad that you made it safely. The forecast was big thunderstorms yesterday but none came tis north. This just crazy weather.

I am of a vintage age and learn so much now than at any time prior in life. I make no claim being wise although it is fun to dress up in costume as a wizard 😆. I have learned there is no device that measures maturity. I have known many people older than me that are mature as 3 year olds. Not sure why I posted this but it was random - something new I learned from a younger generation.

At 43, I explain it this way: I was a scared little shit in my 20's. Now, I'm still a scared little shit, but I take medicine for it! 🤣

They do in certain areas. We used to here (New England) as well back in the ‘70s and before. Some areas of Northern California require tire chains during snowstorms.

I feel the same way, the older I get, the amount I learn seems to accelerate. I’m also far less conservative with each passing year. The vast majority of the people who work at my company are younger than 30, so I’m gaining new perspective. It’s been a real eye opener!
