I know this has gotten a little off subject, but here's an observation I've
had over the years. This was mostly in Colorado, where it usually wasn't
snowy enough to be problem, but then on occasion ........... it was.
Anyway, this depends on temperature, but a lot of the time the salt
actually MADE slick ice on the roads. It would get just warm enough for
the salt to get the left over snow and ice all nice and slushy, almost
water, an then it would freeze into an ice skating rink. Half the time it
was too cold for the salt to melt anything at all in the first place, and
it was mostly a wasted effort.
