WVclimo Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Every time someone posts this evening that a model has taken a step back, I go and look at it and my yard is still getting pounded with heavy snow tomorrow morning. HRRR, ICON, NAMs. If I see less than 3" of snow tomorrow it's gonna be quite the bust given what all guidance shows less than 12 hours from onset. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyHolt Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 This storm may have the most pretreated roads sidestreets etc, and sidewalks that I have ever seen. And what happened to simple road salt? Mass Ave sidewalks were painted blue. Grossly over treated with lord knows how many chemicals, and this is becoming the norm. That and leaf blowers instead of snow blowers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our local governments sure do love to ruin the Chesapeake with even more chemical runoff from the road salt/brine. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like contractors are just shooting their loads instead of sitting on products for a year, which will probably be thrown away/dumped if its unused if a contract is up. Or, just burning product to get an even fatter contract next year. Calcium chloride nom nom no thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out this gem from the ice melt SDS doc: 6.2. Environmental Precautions - Prevent entry to sewers and public waters. Avoid release to the environment http://scotwoodindustries.com/product/industrial-blue/ It has blue dye in it so the guy spreading it can figure out what area he has already treated.
