The cynic in me sees this as an excuse for the city to not have to plow / sand...
"We get 4 cm of snow and -20 temps... roads are icy and slippery..."
Our plows are not out sanding because we didn't get the required 5 cm to declare a snow emergency...
Lets face it this city's track record when it comes to snow clearing / winter maintenance is not the best...
