Are you kidding?

I haven't seen any horror stories from RV.Net members out in the eastern US, mainly Buffalo. C'mon, eh....

    You gotta wonder what 4 feet of snow can do to an RV roof.


    By the looks of the news reports, the snow is VERY DRY (light) for now! If it warms or worse warms and rains it will become very HEAVY very quickly!!
  • Hi Paul,

    I do truly feel sorry for them. However, at least folks in RV's will have some limited power--and heat for as long as the propane lasts. Folks in homes that have lost power will be feeling the crunch a lot by now, and with 3 more feet of snow on the way things will not be getting better soon.

    Speaking of doors filled to the top with the snow banks reminds of a few trips to Northern Maine.

    Saw on facebook what one dude did with his solid snow cover when he opened his door. He installed some shelves in it and has all of his beer on ice haha...

    Just imagine if the power went off as well which I'm sure has happened...

  • I imagine their problems will be a lot worse with flooding, when that 6-7-8' of snow starts melting in the 50deg. temps. they're supposed to be getting. :E
  • Those guys all parked their rigs and winterized them on Labor Day weekend when it started to get cold.....
  • Hi Gary,

    That is because their doors are drifted over and they are cuddled up in bed trying to stay warm.
