In my part of northern VA the forecast keep changing. Yesterday I thought we were going to be spared with rain and only “trace” amounts of ice. The prediction is now 1/4” of ice. Thankfully the tree trimming crews did their thing this year so that should help a little with the power lines.

Anyone know if water softener salt is an okay option for deicing my walkway?

What some locales are considering is a salt water solution.

You might be able to use that. Doesn’t water softener salt come in big chunks?
