I'm down in Philly. Same problem as you, except I've had my Z for a bit now.

I think Mother Nature is trying to decrease the bird population. South for the winter as usual. Nature pops spring on us for a bit, gets all the birds back in the area, than WHAM, winter again = frozen birds.

hey i hear that..... but ill try to make you feel better.....

There are people dying every day because of malnutrition, lack of medicines etc. People dont have houses to live in. There are people who work in sweatshops. Most people in most countries dont have cars. So having a few day of rain aint soooooooo bad



Its ok, ive got a Z too, and i complain when anything goes wrong, im just tryin to make you feel better (by feeling bad )

try being me.

We had a severe ice storm here that wrecked a bunch of trees, snapped telephone poles. Tons of damage. Here's the crazy part though....


I was comming back home from a group meeting at our local college library and it was freezing rain. When I got home, I couldn't make it up the hill to my driveway! I ended up parking at my aunt's house down the street. Next morning there were branches everywhere...and RIGHT where my Z in normally parked was a HUGE branch (about 10 inches in diameter)!!! I got REALLLL lucky. We were in a state of emergency for 3 days, and many many homes lost power.

The same thing happened to me when I got my Z in September. I waited since January to get my car, and we were in one of the worst droughts we ever had and we hadn't seen much rain all summer. The weekend my car comes in, the drought decides to end - it rained all weekend! I don't think we've had one totally rain or snow free week since then. These end of winter storms suck too, I thought we were done with snow until next year!

Well that freezing rain storm wasn't the only pain in the *** weather situation I had to deal with. IT snowed so much a couple of months ago we were in another state of emergency. My car was buried for about 3 weeks. =/

Move to CA. We never get a frost and now we shouldn't get any rain until late Oct-Nov.

Cheers.

I've never even seen snow falling.......Seen it after when it was ice but never actually as snow falling. Australian weather is so different - 42C sometimes in summer and very mild winters - sport all year round.

I guess snow can be a problem - I think i'll stick to the heat.
