[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We shovel snow this morning, then DH did 2nd round in the late afternoon, and when we tried to do 3rd round around 8pm, it’s thick hard ice, DH had to use metal shovel to break the ice then we could remove the ice. We gave up after an hour, roughly shovel half drive way. The snow plower came once in the morning, we’re in a cal-de-sac so snow plower usually skip us and other small circles in the community. We saw car drove into our circle and got stuck. The temperature will be around 26 highest the following few days, so the ice will less likely to melt. I do think having school custodians go to work on Monday is cruel. Why don’t Fcps board members drive to schools tomorrow instead, that way they can evaluate in person if it’s safe enough to open schools on Tuesday or Wednesday?[/quote]

We are going to work today on clearing out the 15”+ feet from the end our driveway to the lane the plow made last night, which is now a pile of solid ice. I don’t know why, but after every storm we have like this the plow truck leaves a huge gap between the curb and the plow. Does anyone else notice the same? Just curious. There aren’t even any cars parked on the street.[/quote]

Ugh yes- I HATE this.  The plows push the snow into a high mound at the end of my driveway.  So hard to move.[/quote]

Honestly, I’d be happier if the pushed snow was at least at the end of our driveway. We have to shovel about 15’ from the end of the driveway into the road just to get to clear the snow the plow left.[/quote]

I was just out there trying to make a dent in some of my unshoveled areas. It's a block of ice. I'd probably need a sledgehammer to break it up into heavy ice chunks. This is really, really bad.[/quote]
