I know how you feel!  The snow always drifts 4 feet deep around the base of my  tower, too.

Don't worry about the no wind thing, it happens to all of us. The first wind turbine I built it was blowing around 15+ MPH everyday. That all the sudden stop the day I finished, two weeks later was the first time I really got to test it.


Your blades look nice.
