Guess this might be a dark fishing spider or wolf spider?
This morning during a snow storm, I was brushing off the snow and saw the spider on my rear tire. Prob was 28 or 30 degrees outside. Took me by surprise.

Dolomedes tenebrosus, dark fishing spider, I think. I’m in New Hampshire, I would be really surprised to see one on a tire in a snow storm too! I checked this evening, we still have spiders active outside, but nothing THAT big!
