Good luck. Stay warm.

(13,661 posts)the snow is a hassle, but a neighbor has a tractor-plow big old machine that he uses to plow driveways, etc. so we usually aren't stuck.
The thing that worries me, though, is they're saying this will be 'wet, heavy' snow, meaning trees and power lines might come down.

(13,661 posts)However, we can retreat to our office if need be - the last three times our home has lost power, the office has been cool when necessary (the derecho last summer) or warm (October storms) ...
So, while it's not the most optimal situation, it's fine. Kitties are fine with extra food and water in the house...

(30,947 posts)We normally get at least one snowfall in the winter that sticks, but this year winter has skipped over us. Though I am not giving up hope yet. We had a blizzard in 1993 on March 13.
