Snow Storm Pummels Dubuque Area

Chevrolet Dealership digs out from Dubuque Snow Storm

Today the Runde Chevrolet sales staff anticipated digging out of yet another snow storm as Mother Nature decided to blanket our area with a foot of snow.  For anyone who has spent a winter or two in the Dubuque area, you’re completely aware of how quickly the snow can accumulate during a Dubuque snow storm.  And snow removal takes time, especially from a dealership lot like Runde Chevrolet that has around 400 new Chevy vehicles sitting on it.  That’s the most new Chevy’s on hand and in stock of any Dubuque area Chevrolet dealership.  That’s a great thing when you need to sell a vehicle.  That’s not such a great thing when it comes time to clear a foot of snow off of 400 vehicles.
It was actually a very pretty day, until you had to get in your vehicle and actually drive someplace. Whether you were heading to work, to the store, or to get your taxes done — the roadways proved treacherous as plows couldn’t keep up with the rate the snow was coming down. As of right now the storm that hovered over the Dubuque area for most of Wednesday is now heading in the right direction — away from us.

 

Almost all schools were closed in the region today and many people were sent home from work early, but overall the Dubuque and East Dubuque area coped admirably with day’s abominable weather.

It’s actually closing in on a record-breaking winter in the city of Dubuque. There wasn’t much snow in November, but once December hit, Tri-State residents busted out their show shovels, snow blowers, ice scrapers, and bags of salt (or snow-melt for the environmentally conscious). If it hadn’t been for that nice warm spell that graced us in January, we’d probably be running out of places to put all the snow right now.  It seems like there has just been one snow storm after another.

Here at Runde Chevrolet — we made it through this recent Dubuque snow storm and we’ll start brushing the snow off of our 1400 vehicles when Thursday morning comes. In the unfortunate event that your car or truck doesn’t feel obligated to start for you in the morning, please give us a call at 1-866-735-5200. Our service department will be glad to diagnose the problem and get you back on the road again.  We are a Dubuque area Chevrolet dealership who is ready and willing to help.

Drive safely and keep your chin up because spring-time is just around the corner.  It’s equally as likely there’s another Dubuque snow storm right around the same corner … but for those of you who can’t wait that long, there’s always Mexico.
