It snowed, which affected TV satellite signals for a few hours. I left the hotel for awhile, but it wasn't long after my return that all the TV channels were back on. I had no trouble with slippery ranks nor parking lot. My only complaint is the heating/air conditioning unit's fan is loud enough that I need to increase the TV volume, which I don't really want to do. Traveling alone, I like the TV for company, but I don't want to be loud for other guests.
