Ice Melting Tips

It’ll be a relatively drama-free St. Patrick’s Day for most of the country when it comes to weather on Friday. 

Strong thunderstorms will roll across the Gulf Coast, while parts of Michigan will get more than a foot of snow. Californians will get a bit of a break from a torrent of storms. 

According to Bob Larson, senior meteorologist at AccuWeather, thunderstorms will affect cities such as New Orleans and Pensacola, Florida, and the southwestern part of Georgia.

Meanwhile, a storm that affected parts of the Midwest on Thursday is centered over Michigan on Friday, with more than a foot of snow expected in northern parts of the state and rain showers to the south.

If you’re looking for safe melting of ice or to make snow removal easier during a snowstorm, consider the following tips:

1. Pre-treat surfaces with ice melter before the snow hits the ground to prevent ice from sticking. This will make the ice removal process much easier.

2. Re-apply ice melt after about an inch of snow has fallen. Some ice melt products can even prevent ice from sticking for up to three days, making shoveling a breeze.

3. Use ice melt sparingly to avoid the accumulation of harmful chemicals, which can harm surfaces and vegetation. Always read and follow the instructions carefully.

5. Apply ice melt to all outdoor areas with foot traffic, including sidewalks, driveways, and parking lots, to reduce slip-and-fall accidents.

8. Choose ice melts that are safe for kids and pets, as some chemical-based products can cause dryness and irritation.
