This is my poor Pod with its cover yesterday.  We are in Manassas Va and got at least 22 inches of snow.  I stopped measuring at that.  I couldn't get a better angle as I couldn't get through the snow to get to the side.     I am afraid I won't see the ground until spring.]]> Mon, 21 Dec 2009 20:30:46 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=973&PID=8728#8728 The Blizzard of 2009 : I have a friend in Virginia and... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=973&PID=8713#8713 Author: Pie_Pod

I have a friend in Virginia and she stuck a YARD stick in the snow.  The last picture i saw was over 22 inches and it was still snowing!

I think we have less then an inch.  It was snowing lightly on and off all day.  I went to church this morning and my one thought was "how come it is raining or snowing EVERY time I go to church!"  I need to remember to bring an umbrella!]]> Sun, 20 Dec 2009 22:46:29 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=973&PID=8713#8713 The Blizzard of 2009 : All is well here.  I kept an... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=973&PID=8708#8708 Author: techntrek

All is well here.  I kept an eye on the local power company's website and very few people lost power around here.  We didn't get the strong winds they were forecasting which probably prevented widespread outages.  We got close to 2 feet, but I keep forgetting to take my tape measure out to see for sure.  I ended up calling someone to dig out the other 200 feet of my driveway.  Schools are already closed tomorrow, but my employer most likely will be on time.  Ready for the next one!]]> Sun, 20 Dec 2009 19:51:45 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=973&PID=8708#8708 The Blizzard of 2009 : Oh yeah, the news just said that... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=973&PID=8697#8697 Author: techntrek

Still snowing here.  Managed to get half of my driveway cleared this afternoon (about 200 feet of it) before I got it stuck along the edge in the dirt.  Couldn't pull it out with my come-along so there it sits.  I just had to go out to clear the sat dish off and the section I cleared earlier has a new layer of 6 inches, so the other section must have 1 1/2 feet.  It isn't supposed to get above freezing until Christmas so we may be shoveling some snow tomorrow.  And the next day.  And the next day....]]> Sat, 19 Dec 2009 18:11:32 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=973&PID=8696#8696 The Blizzard of 2009 : I love a big snow storm!!!!

I stocked the wood for our stove tonight so all set there.  Batteries are both charged on the r-pod if we lose electric ( which we do with a lot of storms).  Gas Propane stove all set right by the back door.  Let it snow!  But now that I'm ready it will not do anything.]]> Fri, 18 Dec 2009 22:43:12 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=973&PID=8666#8666 The Blizzard of 2009 : Now they are calling for 2-3 feet,... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=973&PID=8659#8659 Author: techntrek

Now they are calling for 2-3 feet, which could break the record made in 2003.  Holy -bleep-.  Wacko  If it isn't global warming it must be a really big ice cube sent by aliens.

I'm all set, tractor is ready and I have 3 days worth of wood inside or by the porch.

Looks like its gonna be a big 'un in my area (MD) on Saturday.  I love how this storm went from "snow showers" yesterday morning, to "some snow" yesterday evening and now they are calling for "possible blizzard conditions" and 12"-18" snow.
 
I'm going home early so I can pull the mower deck off my tractor and get the snow blower on, plus the chains.  I haven't had to plow my driveway in 4 years, I hope I remember how to rig it up.  Confused
 
I knew we were due for some snow this year, but, wow!
