[BC] The snow mess

OK ... I admit it.

Snow is probably the least worry I've had in my career. One year I 
did have to walk up the side of our mountain, about a mile from the 
ranger station, when a translator went down before the snow melted 
(no falling snow), and one time I did supervise an antenna mount 
during a flurry.

But aside from driving past some bits of snow, mostly I think of it 
as "someone else's problem."

So, does anyone have any stories from the global warming event on the 
East Coast this week?  Any power-related issues. Any tower 
"events"?  Perhaps someone is still digging out, but I've not seen 
much in the way of snow problems for broadcasters.

What do you know?
