That doesn’t mean driving was easy, because the wind created hazardous conditions.The rumble of snow blowers and the scraping of shovels was the soundtrack of Monroe, where the National Weather Service reported 15 inches of snow in one part of town.Edwin Vargas’ neighborhood didn’t see that much, but it was enough to keep him busy.When asked what the road conditions were like, Vargas said, “I wouldn’t even know because I have not been driving. When I came home last night I stayed home and, yes, I wouldn’t even know.”Source: CBS NEW YORKConcrete Safe Ice MeltSafe PawThe Original and the #1 Pet and Child Safe Ice Melt for over 20 years.
