NJ salt shortage continues

Same here Pittsburgh and most of PA.
Last night we got hit with rain/snow and ice. Roads were a mess but passable.

This winter sucks.

I'm tired of it. I have a 10,000 sq.ft. driveway on one of those PA mountains. I have gone through 10 gallons of fuel for the the tracked snow blower. We have some big hills here in western PA.

One of the problems has been many municipalities bought into the gorebul warming scams and let their salt stockpiles dwindle. Worse, the temperatures have been way below the temperatures where salt is effective. Heck, we just had our third day with temperatures above freezing since the beginning of December. Calcium Chloride gets a bit expensive and many areas refuse to spend the money.

Elections are going to be interesting. One thing that citizens do not tolerate is snow (ice) covered roads.
