Yeah, I just checked weather.com. Up by us we are getting a predicted 3-5" starting in the late morning. They are calling for 5-8" at Birdsboro, PA.
Given it is predicted to snow the entire time down to Frenchcreek for us, I don't know if I feel comfortable driving our trailer in the snow. I am also concerned about the salt from the roads and how that would affect the trailer. Add to that the fact we would be slogging though slush and mud all weekend.
As a result, we are going to cancel this trip. I was looking so forward to this, too. Will this winter ever end????
We'll be at the Jogger next month, though! See you all there.
Mtbikers.
I was camping back in
November during that freak 8" snow followed by two week arctic blast. I towed on slushy roads and pulled into a car wash self wash and gently cleaned off the salty muck.
Today, Weather gurus are predicting winter temps to continue into April. I'll spray the camper off again on the return trip and not worry.
Stressful tow? Take it slow and don't tap the brakes.
One thing ladyhawke, you have to wait until I get there tomorrow morning before you find them. A few items need to be done. We got the coordinates last weekend but....items need to be done 😛

The car started making a funny thumping noise this morning. Dont think it is too serious however getting it looked at just in case first thing tomorow morning. Better safe than sorry. Arrival time is hard to say at this point, depending on weather, mechanical issues, and what time DW gets home from work. So i am guessing. ETA will be somehere between 9pm friday to 7am sat ;D
Doesn't matter when anyone gets in, we'll pitch in to help you get in and setup. Peter and I will have a selection of Adult Tasty beverages ready, plus a few test mystery tubes by the fire to warm you all up :clappingani:

Aw shucks Lone Lock....take all the fun away! I will bring another GPS unit if someone wants to play with it. You will just need to input the coordinates and off you go!
I'm just waiting for Patrick to get home then we will pack and be on our way. Stupid weather...making us spend an extra night camping..... 😀
My goal in life is to be the person my dog thinks I am.
We are waiting until a little later to cancel. So, if by some miracle, the forecast changes we can still go.
As of 15:30, the weather.com forecast is still calling for 5-8" in Birdboro, PA. Ugh. If we were a little closer, it would probably be different for us. However, we have a 2+ hour drive (in good weather) that goes right through the heart of the max snow accumulation area.
