Nice and slippery here in Fargo this mornin - freezing rain and ND don't mix well. Good mornin gents!
Freezing rain doesn't mix well most anywhere. Morning yellow star.
True statement - we also don't salt roads, so it gets extra interesting...howdy Dave! You in NJ this week?
no salt, they still use sand? WTF.
It's nuts - I think we should do a salt/sand mixture, like 25/75. Only issue with salt, is that we don't get temps warm enough to melt-away the snow/ice, so the salt would just melt it and turn it into ice. Minnesota does salt, not sure about the other surrounding states.
they have treated salt now that works to -22 degrees. NYSDOT has used it for years. don't have to incur the cost of clean up in the spring from sand, culverts, drains, shoulders, intersections, etc.
