2016 Snoball Preparations

[SilentShooter]

Looks like the UP is getting some snow today and the rest of the week

South Dakota Snoball as an alternate? I'm in!!!

Pretty sure it'd be closer to where the trucks at currently... 19ish hrs vs 28ish

Redoing my dust/snow lights. Reinstalled my radio. Rain x ed all windows, mirrors, front and rear lighting. The rain x really helps in all conditions. Next up add stickers to rear window and oil change that should be worth 5-10hp!!

Snow is on the way tonight! 12" in the eastern UP a little less to the west but it is starting. Forget the ideas that you will need mud tires.

Got the hood cannon wiring all wrapped up. Ordered blue covers for them.

@2014RubyRed blue cover work very well. I am up by the mackinaw bridge tonight and it has snowed 5"+ so far with another 5" to go. Tested out version 1 of my amber rear light good but I am adding a second one for better visibility. RainX is a must.

Radar shows the same amounts of snow in the central and western UP on the snoball route!!

That's great news!!! I could only get amber covers for the Flex lightbar, but I figured the blue on the hood cannons would help offset that a little.....

Based on my experience amber crosses a better range of visiblity obscuring situations. IMHO of course

Amber is good also that is what I run on my light bar. Blue just cuts even more glare then amber can. I like amber for little to no snow dust. Blue works very well on the hood mounts.

I hated the Amber on my hood mounts compared to the Blue ones I switched to when you are driving fast with snow falling.
