  1. Must have for snow!
    I finally got a Snow Brum after living in the northeast my whole life. I can't believe I've wasted so much time with a regualr snow brush. And this is a required tool if you have an SUV and hate having 50 pounds of snow slide down your wind shield when ever you hit the brakes. You can clean...
  2. Great Product
    I bought my first one a number of years ago at a chain store and was skeptical but then after using it to push off huge amounts of snow with one sweep I was hooked. The telescoping handle is nice and reaches high over the car. Lots of heavy snow can be removed in a few minutes unlike a snow...
How much does it cost to get my drive way and walk way "snow" plowed?

Is it a monthly fee? or is it an everytime it snows fee? when I say plowed, i mean plowed by a truck? can you give me an estimate, $20 everytime its plowed? $40?
Thanks


All depends on a lot of things like how big the driveway and walkway is. You can get a contract where you pay a flat rate for the whole "snow season" or you can get someone you pay each time they come out. We have a very small driveway...

Old tractor stuck way in my backyard. Snow on the ground. Use my truck to pull it out?

How are you at handyman-type repairs? A lot of people would be willing to pay you to do minor fixups around the house. You probably won't get rich, but it ought to keep food on the table.

What happens to my mail when my mailbox is down? USPS?

The other two are correct in that if the mail carrier is still delivering your letter mail, he should be delivering your packages also.

If you're concerned about that packages being safe because the mail box is down, call the post...

An aerodynamic approach to improve visibility during high speed snow plowing
An aerodynamic approach to improve visibility during high speed snow plowing 1982 showed that fine snow particles can be entrained in a wake that extends ... of plow geometries on the distribution of debris around plowing trucks. ...

The snow particles entrained in the wake of the snowplow (i.e. snow cloud) and the subsequent snow accumulation on the warning lights appear as the most pronounced visibility problems behind the snowplow truck. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods are employed with detailed 2D and 3D models of the snowplow trucks (1) to evaluate the performance of the add-on devices (airfoils) available in the market which improve the rear visibility of truck by the public; (2) to gain more insight over the snow cloud pattern. Considering the low density of snow particles and high drag coefficient, they are assumed to follow air flow and their effect on the flow pattern is neglected. The effect of airfoil on the snow accumulation behind the truck is quantified by pressure and shear stress distribution. The airfoil selected based on the numerical studies is implemented on the back of the truck and tested in the field. The results confirmed the rear visibility performance increase by the airfoil over...

  • Wind and snow all in a day's - and night's - work for plow drivers

    Even if you ask nicely, Colorado Department of Transportation plow truck drivers won’t clear the snow from your driveway.

    It’s in the rules, said driver Tom Music, 59, adding that he’s turned down hundreds of dollars for such requests.

    “In a blizzard, people get desperate,” he said.

    Snow pics from around the Pikes Peak region ... send your photos to photo@gazette.com.

    Blizzard-like conditions near Falcon on Friday, with wind gusts around 32 mph, cut visibility and made driving treacherous, even for a CDOT truck.

    As Music worked to clear and sand Highway 24 from Interstate 25 east to Garrett Road, snow blew onto the windshield. He stops occasionally on the shoulder until the windshield wipers can catch up. He drove the same route on Thursday night, dealing with darkness and wind-whipped snow.

    The radio in the truck cab buzzes constantly, keeping track of which driver is where, updating drivers about road closures, redirecting more trucks to areas that need help, and letting drivers know about trouble spots that need extra attention. In the midst of the crackle comes a kudos for a job well done the night before.

    City Proceeds With 24/7 Snow Plowing - KHQ Right Now - News and ...

    SPOKANE, Wash. - The City of Spokane is continuing work under a Stage 2 Snow Emergency that was called on Thursday, Dec. 2.  Crews will work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week until they complete a full City plow that includes all residential areas. 

    Citizens should have moved their cars so they are parked on the even side of the street within the residential areas.  Parking is restricted in the downtown between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. to facilitate plowing there.  And no parked cars are allowed on arterials or STA fixed bus routes.

    The City is clearing snow using teams of graders and truck plows to work through the slushy and icy residential streets.  Graders are being used to do an initial cut down the center of the streets and truck plows are moving the material to the side of the road.  Private contractors with graders are assisting with the plowing effort. 

    Plowing is going better than originally anticipated, and officials expect the full-City plow to be completed late Sunday.  Officials warned that the berms left at the end of driveways would be heavy and difficult to move, especially as temperatures drop.  Large ice chunks are likely.

    Street Department officials are prioritizing plow areas based on street conditions.  Crews have completed residential plow routes 1, 2, 4, 5, and 24 on the South Side, and are working in routes 3, 20, and 21. On the North Side, plows have finished residential plow routes 9, 13, 22, and 23, and they are working in routes 6, 7, 8, and 10.  Route 12 will come next.  Here is the link to the plow route map: http://www.spokanestreetdepartment.org/documents/snowroutemap.pdf

    To check the progress of City plows, go to www.spokanestreetdepartment.org/snowplow.htm .  

    Residents can type in their address on the top of the snow plowing progress map to get a closer look at their area.  Citizens also can call our Snow Removal Hotline at 456-2666 for recorded information on the location of plows.

    The City of Spokane Declares Stage 2 Snow Emergency Again - KHQ ...

    SPOKANE, Wash. - You know it's bad when even the school buses can't get around to pick kids up and get them to school. That, and after receiving numerous calls and complaints from people asking for a bailout on residential streets, the City of Spokane declared a Stage 2 Snow Emergency on Thursday.

    The Stage 2 declaration means crews will work 24 hours a day, seven days a week until they plow every street in the city – including residential streets.

    Within 12 hours—or by 9:30 p.m. on Thursday, Dec. 2—people must move their cars so they are parked on the even side of the street within the residential area.  Parking is restricted in the downtown between 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. to facilitate plowing there.  And no parked cars are allowed on arterials or STA fixed bus routes.

    Wednesday night's rain and sloppy snow converted snow-packed arterials and residential streets into slushy messes with deep ruts. Even the city's plow trucks were having difficulty with the slop, finding it difficult to move the snow and slush to the sides of the roads.  Because of such messy conditions, a city spokesperson said plowing the entire city would likely take longer than usual.

    And because the snow is so wet and heavy people should be warned that the muck plowed in front of driveways would probably be thicker and more difficult to move than it usually is. Much of it will become ice as colder temperatures move in over the weekend.

    "We are working hard to keep the city moving but we are asking for citizens' patience as we address new and changing conditions," said Mayor Mary Verner in a news release.

    Some of the areas most impacted by the slush appear to be the North Central area of Spokane where many streets were impassable on Thursday. KHQ received several calls from people in North Spokane who said they couldn't leave their neighborhood because of the poor street conditions.

    School buses were also impacted by the snow and slush. At least some children in Spokane Dist. 81 arrived to school late on Thursday because buses either couldn't reach them or arrived late because of the street conditions. The Mead School District, outside the city limits, also reported having troubles navigating through neighborhoods.
