    We're expecting 18-24" in my area the last time I checked. Should be an interesting time. There are suggestion that due to the high winds, we may lose power so if I disappear, that's more than likely why. I do not plan on going out anywhere. I'm set and ready to get through it. Generator is at the ready too. I made it through the blizzard of '78. This one should be a piece of cake :)

    Yeah, I also was in the '78 storm. Took 2 1/2 hr. to make a 1/2 hr. trip home from work. Only got home because of my VW bug, great in snow! We are expecting same forecast as you. Good luck Colleen, be safe..

    Same to you!

    Colleen, sorry but I got off track on your post telling of your snow loaded roof. I hope all holds up and it warms to melt. I have used rock salt, or calcium chloride in a nylon, and thrown it up near the gutters to help melt and prevent ice damming. Good luck, Bus.
