  Hi Folks;

  There's a good chance we're going to have a major winter snowstorm  
  this weekend. Current predictions are 12 to 20 inches, with the storm  
  starting around midday on Friday. The Carroll County Office of  
  Emergency Management is planning its response in case the storm causes  
  problems. Because of our history of reliable support, Chrissy Calp has  
  asked that we prepare as well. She wants us to be ready to provide  
  support for: EOC, Carroll Hospital Center, Shelters, and Fire  
  Departments.

  Chrissy has asked that we give her an idea how many people could be  
  available. If you're available and able to perform any of the  
  following missions anytime this weekend Friday thru Sunday, please let  
  me know by noon on Thursday 04-Feb:

  1) You can SAFELY travel a distance of 10 miles in 12 inches of snow.

  2) You have portable radio equipment that can be set up to operate  
  from a sheltered location where power is provided. You would have to  
  bring an antenna and coax.

  3) You can be available to perform net control or net liaison duties  
  from your home.


  Also, please review your pre-activation checklists so that you and  
  your family will be safe. Be sure to monitor the 145.410 repeater  
  whenever possible this weekend for any instructions, and to support  
  any motorists who are out traveling.

  73; Steve, N3SB
