I lived in Jackson Hole, Wyoming for about 20yrs before the NW and I never saw anything close to the nasty verglas we find on windshields here. Couple of my buddies, after one douche of freezing rain on top of a few feet of wet snow, they "skied" on their hockey skates on the 2" rain crust. Not even a premium Lexan windshield scraper will remove that kinda ice. On Feb 10, 2014 12:00 AM, "Jeff Palmer" <jpalmer@mymts.net> wrote:
