Close up that slide! You're just asking for a leak!

Well, that'd be fine but I got caught off guard, and had planned to slide them in before it started...but it started alot earlier than it should have...
It's already stopped, and the temps are above freezing, so I should be able to slide them in tomorrow afternoon.... a lil snow never hurt anyone, but it's just irritating! I am leaving in 4 days for vacation and don't need it!

Yes. Brush off the snow and close your slides before it leaks. That snow is wet and heavy and will be pushing down on your slide roof. I dont know how much you are supposed to get but this is one storm that is going to miss us, and not many have in the last couple of months. We still have about 2 feet of it on the ground and a temp of 32 degrees so it will be here for a while.

It already stopped, supposed to get less than 1 in, and it's raining at 39 degrees, no worries, It'll be gone by midnight, then I'll put it in tomorrow evening after the rain stops.
I appreciate the concern though! It should certainly be OK as we expect no more than rain from here on out....if it starts again, I'll run out and slide 'em in... but at tis point I don't think I'll have to.
This is VA, where we say if ya don't like the weather, wait a minute....
David...from what I see ya'll are above me on the rain/snow line...haha SORRY BUD!
Steve....That's not what I call snow either, that's what I call a good reason to move south! lol!

SlowPoke, around here we would call what you got partly cloudy. Your unhappy with a inch of snow and we would consider ourselves fortunate to only get a inch. Its a lot worse about a hundred miles north of here in Houghton in Michigan's UP. They got more than 100 inches in January alone from lake Superior. And north of them in Kewenaw County they have gotten 253 inches through March 24th. So I guess its not so bad around here after all.

Yeah, I shouldn't be angry...just seldom do we get snow around this time...we do, but just seldom. Last few years, we really haven't gotten much more than spits of snow, then it melts pretty soon. (Best kinda snow to have, unless you like skiing)
Most I ever remember was back in the late 70's at around 23"... so yeah, no complaints!
With that said, we do get ice quite often more than snow (this has been a weird year more snow, than ice and winds have been ridiculous last few years) and ice sucks....
So, yes, I'll take partly cloudy any time! (Still rather it be 95 degrees though!) One day I'll retire like some of you and head SOUTH! Permanently...(I don't mind the humidity!)

Hello slowpoke from Newport News, My bedroom slide is out also, been trying to fix the bed... We got about a inch here and now it seems to be raining, Hope this goes away fast! A bunch of us VA Campers are going to Pocahontas state park in Chesterfield for Easter! Thinking I should go investigate for leaks!

Howdy kenn209, done some cell tower work over your way a few years back...(got outta that line of work now) Pocahantas is where I used to ride my bike to to go fishin back at the ripe ole age of around 12... Love that place, since they revamped the campground, been thinking of pulling over there for a long weekend since it's still close enough for my DW to be able to go to work. She rarely gets the time off I do (She's gleering at me with those razor eyes right now...lol) Maybe we'll see ya there some time! It's only about 20 minutes from my house!
KJcachers, thanks for the tip...I'll have to check that one out!

Okay seems to be warming a little outside, Got out the ladder knocked off the slush and brought the slide in. Didn't want the wet stuff to freeze overnight, just in case. But it all seems to be melting, Fast!
Yeah Pop over this weekend if your in the area. And stop by the website. Pretty good group of people over there.
