    Spent 4 hours driving through blizzard conditions with the Prius this weekend. About 120 miles of a 140 mile trip. Had to do it again the next day, the wind driven snow was gone but still about 1" to 2" still on the freeway...

    Not bad with the winter tires I got but can anything be done with keeping the lights, front and rear, clear of snow?

    Just when I figured it would be great to run on fog lights they were packed with snow :(
    I had people tell my my tail lights were out but they were just packed with ice and snow.
    only thing visible on the headlight was a little 1" square were the light shone through.

    Also wiper gave up and started streaking half way home. need to get new wipers but cant find any for the driver side.
