I'm looking forward to your input on a potential storm this winter.

I believe you'll see less salt on the roads. You might have to put chains on the truck this winter. Yes, rock salt prices have significantly increased in Pennsylvania. Recent reports indicate that municipalities are facing sharp price hikes, with costs rising from approximately $88 per ton to around $160 per ton. This increase has prompted local governments to seek alternative suppliers and adjust their budgets accordingly. The surge in prices is attributed to various factors, including supply chain issues and increased demand during winter months And now this too: https://www.abc27.com/pennsylvania/experts-show-impact-of-road-salt-on-pa-waterways/

32 this morning.

30 with fog and frost this morning.

I was at Walmart around 12:30pm yesterday and some younger woman had a full-fledged winter coat on. I was like it's not that cold out yet.

The great Blizz has awakened with the onset of colder weather. Snow maps will probably be coming within the next month. What's your outlook, prediction on this coming winter?
