If I got even the low part of Roger's forecast I'd have a damn heart attack. Just imagine the high winds and Siberian temps! Naaaaaahh, I'll get a coating to maybe an inch if it goes BOOM.

And the ‘hood has that Swiss vibe. But last year was craptastic. And a Niña winter won’t be kind. Plus my vehicle looks like absolute s#*t. Check out Delerium Cafe here next time through. It’s pretty cool with a bunch of European beers that you don’t often see. Or Señor Ramon Tacos. Fantastic stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to VDOT report a problem on google and voice your concern. They are killing song birds who consume granules of unmelted salt, polluting streams, killing fish and other life in those streams, rusting out the under body of your vehicle with the highly corrosive salt, and wasting money .

Expand Good luck to you my friend! And, join me in fighting this outrage!!! Last weekend, VDOT spread hundreds of tons of salt over nearly every road in my area for less than a quarter inch of snow that was blowing off the roads. I am a retired veteran of VDOT. What I witness today is sad compared to the 80's & 90's. This is killing our environment!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
