that sounds like a horrible camping experience! that's so strange about the rain. i'm not too surprised about the snow though. this is a 3 season tent which means it's not meant to be used in the snow.

I camped in Maine one weekend when hurricane was in that area. It was raining 2 days almost non-stop. The tent was dry. One night I felt water under the tent and decided to check how deep it was. I touched ground outside the tent and it was about 1.5" of water. The only water I got in the tent was from condensation. Did not try it in snow so can not comment on that.
