here we have enough salt and snowplows to take us to the next budget crunch - (we never can buy enough for the whole winter cause it crosses two stupid fiscal years) - but the thing is we HAVE the means to clear the roads so folks can get to work.

where i lived in north dakota they fortunately didnt use salt on the roads. i thought the general consesus was that it was unpopular. nice to have around on the roads but will eat the car from rust. the town used all sand.

We get plenty of hot humid weather in August up here, thank you. This summer was pretty bad too. Lot of high 90 days. At least we don't flip out and shut down the city for a little ice. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I think we did have a couple days that broke 100 this summer. And that's the kind of heat where your armpits start sweating when you think about going outside.

I think that was two years ago. I had to move that day. Carrying furniture down 3 flights of stairs in 110 degree weather was pretty bad.

Ice is far worse than snow, anyway. I would rather have 4 inches of snow than 1/4 inch of ice.
