So much salt residue still on the roads from the winter weather event the other day. Little snow accumulation here and there.

This is the first time I’ve been able to measure at the site since getting my permit because of ice.
Because we are expecting a wintry mix today, I’ve seen salt trucks in the area since last night

Snowed 2 to 3 inches two days ago. Creek is icy covered but was able to gather in a natural opening. Sky clear.
