Actually, this particular snowstorm a year ago did not seem so bad.

RE: In The Wild, Photo Share (If Possible To Capture).... Keep Your OneWheel In The Shot If You Can.
Onewheel Plus yesterday with a palm-sized frog:
One of three tennis-ball-sized wool sower oak wasp galls on the same tree today -- at a bit above eye level, too high to have the Onewheel in the photo:

RE: Onewheel Neighbors
Onewheeling the rural road today a black SUV overtook me very slowly, and hesitantly rolled down the window to talk with me. Visiting here in Northeast Ohio from North Carolina, the guy noticed my EGO battery atop of the Onewheel and wanted to know how I hooked it up. Turns out he has EGO tools and a Onewheel Plus. So, we talked by the side of the road as motorcycles and pickup trucks stopped to ask if we were okay. The guy showed me his wife's PintX in the way back of his car. It was a neighborly surprise interaction.

RE: One Wheel Plus Magnetic Resistance for a of a Rotation & Audible Thudding
@jordan5100 -- Hi. Simple things first: My guess is you've already ruled out fender rubs or nubs under the fender; made sure the bolts holding the wheel to the rails are torqued evenly each/both sides; and checked for tyre irregularities.
Personally, not being sure of myself opening up the motor, if it was mine I'd probably trade out the whole motor for another. If you are adventuresome -- you could part the stator and hub, and you could probably find a stator (or hub) to remedy the problem. Or, once open, the source of the noise might then be clear, and a solution will work its way into your head (and hands).
Again, though, I'm more of a Onewheel rider than a technician of Onewheel insides, and to me, to minimize board down time I'd swap out motors for one kept in my reserve jumble of parts for just this kind of situation.
Others in the OWForum here are more detail oriented!

RE: Vesc Conversion Status (Rose/Mika)
@loaffette -- I suggest that you might want to wear some armor. A Fox Titan Pro Jacket (with some extra CE padding in the leading shoulder and elbow) has let me get back up and ride away from an handful of high speed crashes. That with a helmet, knee pads, and wrist guards. Also, on my hips, I wear knee/shin guards -- no more bruised thighs.

RE: Im looking for a replacement tire for a my one wheel pint
@jessejedi -- A cheap alternative to get riding quickly might be tire sealants like Armor-Dilloz or Slime (off-road).

RE: An Ounce (a few grams) of Prevention
Ha! ...I fell again today -- certainly not on purpose -- No injuries to speak of. Too fast I hit a gnarly root ridge in the pavement on a less familiar section of Greenway, which destabilized the Onewheel ride. At first I thought I could ride it out... but in a foot-wobbly instant it seemed a good chance to fall uncontrolled -- limbs-akimbo. My body's simple, immediate reaction to that sudden realization was to relax, collapse forward, and rhymically roll, rather than fall hard on my face or fall scattered backwards.
Again, it worked! My armor took the brunt of impact and the slide from pavement to gravel. Sum total of injury: Two small, superfluous scrapes on different sides of my leading ankle... that's it... but again the surprise -- that I'm not even sore from the fall! Checked the board, straightened the fender, tightened the batteries, and Onewheeled the seven-and-a-half more miles -- of my twenty today -- back to the electric bicycle.
