Relax....the streets are passable, They were passable when I came home from work at 2:00 AM on Friday morning. Even with a re-freeze, they still will be passable. It is going to get above freezing on Sunday. Why must people think the streets must be perfectly clear of snow and ice after everystorm. If the streets are passable, which they are, the road department has done their job.

^ ^ I second what the gentleperson above says.

The streets are fine. I'd rather have the packed snow on them than black ice any day of the week. Some people just need to learn to drive.
