I wish I would have had more sun. Alas, my 'channel' approach to clearing the drive didn't completely clear it. Though it will defintely be less work than having done it earlier.
Instead of shoveling the whole steep driveway, I took the approach of digging a series of canals to allow melting to do the work for me on the parts I didn't shovel
At least that's my plan.
I was really expecting the temp to be moving north from where it is. I've been hovering 38-40 for a few hours. I suspect at some point I'll bounce toward the mid-40's, but perhaps not.
Walking the dog was hell.
1) misjudged the 'lull' depicted on the radar. Got soaked
2) driveway 3" of slush
3) despite the road being plowed and streams running down the hill, it was exceptioanlly icy under the water. I stood still and my husky-mix was acting like a husky just pulling me along.
Temp bouncing between 38-40.
Eye-balling things more closely, I think I might have wound up with at least 4". I think I'll likely have to clear my drive (pretty steep hill) and definitely from what the plow's left at the end.
39*
I've been wondering the same thing. I suspect there will be reason to clear it.......but not sure if we'll have NEED to do so. Important difference.
Up to 39* here.
