Fortunately, it was still below freezing when I discovered it so it didn't melt. Scooped most of the snow out by hand, then used a wet/dry vacuum to get the rest. The window was only open about an inch and a half. I have those plastic rain deflectors on it and normally can leave the windows cracked open a bit and rain or snow won't get in. The problem was the wind associated with the storm - it just blew the snow sideways, then up the window and into the truck. A pain, but no harm done. RCE Years ago, I had a VW Rabbit. Fishing from shore in Tracy, Ca, just over the hill from me, and is very windy. I am down below the bank, so very nice, catching a few catfish. Go to leave, and the top of the car is above ground level and the window is down about 1/2". The field next to the levee had been plowed not to long before. There is at least 1" of fine dirt on everything inside the car. Brushed out the dirt as best I could before going home. Took me a couple of days to get the inside clean again. |
