it’s like, eight inches or some shit. This is the South, y’all, I haven’t seen more than 2 inches of snow in like… over a decade at least

they plowed my side street well enough but the highway near me looks like a solid sheet of ice after being plowed, and like, my driveway is full of it

i do not have a snow shovel lol I don’t really know what to do about it, I tried to clear some of it with a push broom (it’s presently as light and fluffy as snow could possibly be) but I only got like 1/4 of the way before i got tired u_u

      snow is heavy; i was just poking fun at how I imagine you were using the push broom (against your advantage, trying to actually sweep it down your driveway instead of to the sides). Most of it has melted off here in the sun already surprisingly but I found it pretty easy to blow it off, so if you have a leafblower I’d recommend doing that although I did use my kitchen broom to clear the stairs of my apt and it was pretty easy to just sweep to the side. My computer duster cleared my car in a minute though so you shouldn’t even really need a high power leafblower or anything. Highly recommend clearing it ASAP though because once it melts and turns to ice you know the deal lol

        I used the leafblower to clear the ramp down from my porch and it was perfect for that but it wasn’t very effective on the driveway, just kinda randomly swirling it around in quantities too small to really effectively move it
