Is it time to take off the snow tires and put on the summer tires?

It's getting close... I usually wait until the temp is hovering just around 10 consistently. I use this as my temp for putting the snows on, too. 10 degrees seems a lot colder in the fall then it does in the spring!

I was at TireMag in Concord this morning. They advised that I wait till the end of March to be on the safe side.

My first year with the CSVT I put the summers on comfidently in mid-April.....only to be stuck doing a really scary trip back to Ottawa at 40 kmh due to a snowstorm/sleetstorm.
I am waiting until mid April again this year...but not as confidently.

What did you guys put on for summer tires?
I've only had my 'tour since October and it came with winters.
Here my list so far....
Bridgestone Potenza RE950
Michelin HydroEdge
Yokohama Avid H4
Yokohama AVS dB S2
What you think? I want dedicated summer tires because I'll just use these winters again next year.
