Thank you for the recommendations. The only item I have to work on is getting the chain saw restarted and mixing more fuel. I have been a bit of prepper for over 14 years.

There are so many problems with this much wet snow. People need to use their imagination, including what the weight loading means for roofs and outbuildings.

The local media is beginning to report on it, but without any urgency for an event that may occur in 72 to 96 hours.

You are right about this being Red Pennsylvania in the snow warning area. If I have to I'll load may generator up and take it to the polling location for the day.

You can get premixed 2-cycle gas & oil in quart cans now most anyplace they sell lawn equipment. Fuel stabilizer is mixed in. It's expensive compared to mixing your own, but hassle-free.

Don't forget an extra bar, bar oil, chains, spark plugs ( Many! ) and files.

And be careful- I've run chainsaws all my life & I hate the damned things.
