My particular secondary road in #orangecountync #ncdot really doesn't seem to have the resources or the organizational capacity at this time to have gotten out in front of this one

The trope that people like to express is that #ncdot never gets out in front - which is definitely not true - it just seems maddeningly inconsistent

Between the coming snow and long-range 8-14 day outlook from the NWS - the rural areas of the county are going to be treacherous for probably another week+half #ncwx

Hitting these shaded areas that stay well below freezing has to be tough. You'd have to do the salt/sand thing prior to any sun angle changes - then send in the plows(*)

And none of us really want that de-icing mix to drain out to the waterways out here either

...

* I'm starting to think that my subconscious just orchestrated this whole post so that it could torture me with an earworm the rest of the day 😂

🎶 But where are the plows?
🎶 Quick, send in the plows
