OMG Snowed in bigtime

[softail-joanie]

The electric went out last night and just now came back on, internet is finally working. I'm gonna try to get some pics of this, Opened the camper door this morning and snow came into the camper, it was at least 20 inches high from where the door opens from the bottom. My snow shovel broke under the weight. I used a little shovel, i haven't worked this hard in a while. tired, I can't get my car out. Just stuck and freaking out over being stuck. I don't really need to go anywhere right now, just bothers me that i can't. What I wouldn't give right now for a Jeep cj5 4wd lifted 6 inches with studed tires.

Hiberbate is what makes you sad, and cold !

Re the link you provided, that's not cold.

Cold is when it gets below - 10 and a wind chill factor of - 10 to - 20 and below.

Nothing nicer than a cold winters morning, crisp still air, outside, everything still, snow on the ground.

My understanding of the US is that those 'extreme' conditions existed long before man came along,
Or to have enough impact to affect the climate.

man has had an impact on the environment ever since humans introduced agriculture.. approx 11 thousand years ago.  the serverity of our impact on the planet has increased since the industrial revolution approx 250 years ago

the scientific community has a different understanding to yours

It is nearing the end of summer here, winter here is cold enough for me, dont have snow where I live.

Went to England in the winter and thought I was going to die, could just not put enough clothes on.

Gold Coast winter was not to bad, we had a nice fire place.

It's not how many clothes you put on, it's how you dress and what layers go where.

Probably the only reason I haven't had hypothermia in the past.

Thanks, i watched most of it, nice lady, and pretty too. The snows here are short lived, already melting off.

But i have a new problem, some kind of weird sickness, not sure what it is, choking on my own fluids, worse when i lay down , afraid to sleep. coughed until i got a headache. and, it just occured to me that theres mold in this camper.. i feel like i'm working up tward a vomit and trying to stop it because i haven't eaten today,.  it would just be painfull heives..

i can't seem to clear it outta my throat. tried coughing, belching, hacking, nothing works. i even drank some mouthwash. i'll drink alittle more then try to sleep it off.

later all

 Joanie, I think it is the mould that is causing this chest problem. I hope that darn snow stops, and enables you to get some fresh air into that van.  

You won't feel energetic but the place needs a good vinegar wash down to kill those spores.  And you, of course, may need medicinal assistance.   Are you able to have a steam inhalation with eucalyptus oil to ease the symptoms.

Joanie you need to see a Doctor as quick as you can.
