Snow-pocalypse (aka Snow-mageddon)

That's all you had to say.

sweating copper is easy as hell.  if you have the tools, of course.. you just need to be able to cut the pipe, scrape it, prep it and then fit, heat and touch with the solder.  it's the easiest thing to do.  propane torch is fine.

I manned up and fixed the damn pipes myself. 

Finally got a hold of a plumber, and well...If I had waited, we'd still be without water in our house. I went to the local ACE hardware and got a torch, some solder, and flux. Found out the reason it broke was because the previous plumbing job was not too hot (pipe was too short, so there was alot of tension on it). went back, bought some more pipe and did it up. Still working, since friday, so I guess I did okay.


But...Hope all you DFW folks have got your groceries stocked up. Sounds like we're about to go for round 2!!!!!!!
