It was thought the WEATHER turned ugly which caused a multi-vehicle pile up on the Interstate. THIS ACCIDENT, the cause
of stranded humans in freezing temps. If true, Youngkin had
no part in any of this mess.

Libs are striking out due to the fact global warming/climate change is not cooperating with their agenda.
SNOW WAS SEEN **their lies have been exposed, for we’ve been told snow is now history in our part of the world. If they really cared about those stranded, freezing Americans, they would run their butts over and use their hot air to give some warmth to these folks.

Libs do not have to be truthful. Ever.

It’s time to start randomly piss testing everyone in the socalled National “media”. They are either lying a lot or are doing way too many recreational drugs to be trusted with what they try to pass off to the gullible public as real news. Youngkin will be sworn in as governor in 11 days. The a**holes in the “media” need to continue sticking crap like the on President Trump. Sick bastards.

Check pool supply stores, they usually have it for the saline pools.

There’s a difference between brine and granular salt applications

You apply brine when it is expected to freeze and get snow. The brine keeps it from sticking hard to the road surface. But it can’t be placed if it is going to rain as you pointed out because it will simply wash away.

Some agencies still use a salt/sand mixture which can provide some breakup and better traction.

For extreme storms on the mountain passes Washington DOT uses a product called Ice Slicer and it will melt away the compacted snow and ice really fast.

Why didn’t they just stay home or hunker down where they were?

The people who don't pay attention to the weather warnings are the same liberal donkeys who haven't figured out their dear Dem Gov. Northam remains in office until January 15, when the GOP Gov. Youngkin is sworn into office.

It’s comical and sad at the same time. It demonstrates the lack of personal responsibility on the part of many.

Every death from this storm will be from covid not hypothermia or frostbite.

I agree that many of these people have no one to blame but themselves. Especially those who didn’t have to go out on road and thought it was a good idea to drive a Prius or any 2WD vehicle in winter.

Bunch of DC retards who think they should run the world. They can’t even run their commute, personally or governmentally.

A little snow and they are completely helpless and unprepared. And these jackasses want to remake and run the entire economy.

That is water softner salt or solar salt. I have used that in the past when desperate.

The problem is that the pieces of salt are too big. They are like the size of a really big muti vitamin.

I only use rock salt on my driveway. I use calcium chloride on my side walk where I have azalea bushes on each side.

It doesn’t matter that Younkin isn’t governor yet. The objective is to make him look bad in the minds of the uninformed.

Just remember, these are the same people who invested a large part of their lives into the Washington Redskins, had all of their investments (tickets, hats, gloves, bedspreads, etc.) erased, and now follow the pathetic Washington football team (I call them the Whatevers) like clapping seals and waste their money waiting for the next name change! Yeah...bunch of retards!

Just remember that rock salt is very bad on concrete.

If you have concrete you should be using Calcium Chloride or Magnesium chloride.

They will not damage your concrete.

Unless you have sealed your concrete do not use common rock salt.

Commies are idiots, need any further proof..and honestly even IF Youngkin were Governor, what would they expect him to do, get rid of the truck himself..seriously..unfortunately this happens a lot here in CA, especially going up towards Big Bear, sometimes its blizzard like conditions that do it, sometimes its an accident that causes people to be stuck on the freeway for hours, its horrible but a Governor really cant do anything about it
