AKRON, Ohio, Nov. 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- While much of the country
is still enjoying remaining mild temperatures and the final days of a
colorful autumn, motorists are reminded that the comfort level of their
winter driving may be dependent upon the condition of their vehicle and
tires.
Not only that, but the venerable Farmers' Almanac is predicting a
winter with widespread cold and heavy snowfalls in many areas of the U.S.
If such predictions are true -- and the Farmers' Almanac is right about
80 percent of the time -- Goodyear officials said motorists shouldn't wait
much longer to enhance their traction on winter roads and highways. It's
not too late to consider a set of new tires for the family car or
sport-utility.
"The time to prepare your vehicle for winter is during the fall," said
Joey Viselli, Goodyear brand director. "Along with the antifreeze, battery
check-ups and new wiper blades, an inspection of the tire tread should be a
year-round practice, but especially as we prepare for potential slippery
road conditions."
Viselli recommends a set of winter tires for motorists in severe winter
regions, or at least a strong year-round choice like Goodyear's tires
featuring TripleTred Technology. The TripleTred tires -- Assurance for cars
and minivans, and Fortera for SUVs -- feature three unique tread zones for
superior traction in any kind of weather -- rainy, icy or dry.
An interlocking tread pattern creates an Ice Zone on the TripleTred,
which helps translate into more gripping power on icy or snow-covered
roads. This zone is enhanced by the use of fiberglass fibers and volcanic
sand in the rubber, which help to present microscopic pores that act as
traction elements.
Two other tread zones -- a Water Zone and a Dry Zone -- help the
TripleTred tires provide users with total confidence to handle various
weather conditions. The year-round tires are backed by a 30-day No
Obligation Trial Period, roadside assistance program, nationwide warranty
service, on-line product registration and tire rotation reminder service.
Viselli reminds motorists that the Almanac's forecast for the 2008-2009
winter calls for a "numbing winter, with below-average temperatures for at
least two-thirds of the country. Only the Far West and Southeast will see
near-normal temperatures. Precipitation-wise, most of the South, as well as
the Midwest, should experience above-normal conditions, according to the
Farmers Almanac, while the rest of the nation will average close to normal.
With below-normal winter temperatures and an above-normal precipitation
forecast, the Great Lakes and Midwest will see above-normal snowfalls,
especially during January and February."
The weather formula of the Farmers' Almanac is a closely guarded
secret. The predictions are based on a mathematical and astronomical
formula that dates back to 1818. According to reports, its famous
long-range forecast is accurate between 80 and 85 percent of the time.
