[@SledgeHammer43]

That pile will probably be around till August or maybe even September.

[@Lanefasts]

True... I used to work in an office across the street from a dump site, and I could see the mountain of snow outside my window... In July-August it's near the end, but the melting actually slows down a bit at that stage, because the dirt that's left behind as the snow melts builds a thicker and thicker layer over the remaining snow, and that layer ends up insulating the snow from the summer heat... In August it looks like small mountain of gravel and dirt, because the snow is entirely covered.

[@SledgeHammer43]

@@Lanefasts I worked for a City in Southeast Wisconsin. One year we got hit about every 3 or 4 days. We were stacking snow in reservoirs, parks and abandoned parking lots. We didn't warm up till April, and when we did we went from single digits and 20s Fahrenheit to 50s and 60s and tropical type rains. About 1/3 of the City flooded in the matter of a couple of hours. We had to open a storm water valve into Lake Michigan. The EPA Still fined us millions for releasing the untreated storm waters into Lake Michigan. I can still remember assisting the Fire Department in flood water Rescue. We had one park that was along a creek that was estimated 15 feet deep in floodwaters. Along with our city gulf course. A estimated 50% of basements were flooded including city hall when we opened the storm water valve into lake Michigan.

[@jesperhollensen726]

[@benjaminallen2370]

[@montanaharkin]

Lol exactly. Just move it 5 ft over where no one is walking or driving.

[@iowacorn9740]

Obviously MAKE WORK JOBS is the operative term for this operation. Far more resources than necessary, to keep people employed.

[@cwalker3783]

Hmmmm...no. They can't just dump the snow anywhere they want, whether nobody is either walking or driving. Snow turns into water. It is illegal to cause water to go onto private property as per the Civil Code in the province of Quebec. Snow is heavy and can damage trees, bushes and flower beds. The snow in the streets is mixed with road salt, sand and gravel which damages the greenery.

Because the snow on the street is not clean. Lots of salt , dirt and garbage are in the snow. In Montreal, lots of snow , rain , so we have enough water for agriculture.

[@florichi]

Imagine if you would put a nice thick blanket ontop of that and ran pipes through the pile of snow, how much energy you could save if the coolness would be distributed throughout the city to cool building down, rather than using energy hungry AC.

[@hailong_Vlog]

Great idea!! that could save lots of electricity !

[@thoughtfox2409]

Well, if you could store the cold, then yes. But you don't need AC in winter and in the summer that pile has molten.

[@florichi]

@@thoughtfox2409 One comment down someone stated that a pile the same size was around till July-August. So even if it was only around till June it would save half a year of electricity. But since it would melt faster with all the "coldness" taken away from it, it would maybe stay till May or April, but that's still better than having it sit there for nothing. But heat exchange systems already exist, where the heat of the summer is stored in underground fluid tanks for heating in winter, and the then cold water is used for cooling in summer. But hardly anyone uses this system.

[@MyMarkn]

@@florichi AC isn't needed in Montreal until the middle of June and if they running fluid though pipes in the snow it will melt away from the pipe making the system useless. Its much more efficient to bury the pipes underground. Then you get heat in the winter and cooling n g in the summer. I appreciate the fact that people are trying to think outside the box but there's really no other option othere then heated roads. That's only feasible in Finland where they use steam heated by a volcano.

[@CharlesSoden]

Can someone explain why they plowed it toward the middle and the plowed it back again in the first half?

[@thenussbaum44]

government job

[@hailong_Vlog]

Charles, I have no idea. Hope somebody can explain it. :)

[@claytonlind2996]

They are most likely trying to push it somewhere else instead of the side of the road. A blade can only push so much before pushing snow to the side, so you have to take bite size chunks at a time. It’s called working in winrows

[@hailong_Vlog]

@@claytonlind2996 thanks for your explanation!!

[@markmcgahey8385]

They will do another pass with the blower. They are getting all the snow away from the curb and sidewalk and the plows have a minimum width so it goes further out into the road than necessary and then they make a last pass to nudge it back from the second lane into the middle of the first lane ready for the blower to return.

[@XSENTONEX]

I don't know too much snow in Detroit. In Montreal, there are several snow storm every winter, it got at least 20-30cm snow each snow storm. We have to remove the snow. The problem is that sometime there is not too much snow or snow is melting, they're still removing the snow on the street or sidewalk .

Why not put heating mats into the road so the snow just melts away

[@meatloafmen]

The climate absolutely fucks roads up here. No chance that that would last any reasonable time, let alone that this is a bigass city. The cost of installing something that would just break anyways would be astronomical

[@hailong_Vlog]

good idea! This is what I thought before, put like solar heating mat on the street. But not realistic.

[@hailong_Vlog]

@@meatloafmen Adam thanks for your explanation.

[@ppercut]

You could do it but laying plastic pipe in the road would stop the damage from freeze thaws cycle duno why they don't do simler at Alaska airport they spend upto half a million just on products to keep the ice from building up they do the same in Poland and heat sum of the building with steam

[@MyMarkn]

In Finland they have geothermal power plants that make power from steam from volcanoes. They pump the extra steam though pipes in the local roads and they stay bare all winter. Unfortunately thats not an option in most places like Montreal. It would require a massive boiler that would use far more fuel then those trucks.

Nothing to do with infrastructure. The snow has to be removed otherwise there would be mountains of it blocking the roads by March. We can’t just wait until it melts in April.

[@maxkauffman6289]

@@davidwojcik7770 but that has everything to do with infrastructure. I'm no expert on snow, but there's got to be a way to deal with the snow that doesn't require vast amounts of carbon emissions to pick it up and move it. on the other hand, what if the infrastructure didn't even require snow removal? underground metro or something.... idk I'm just spitballing here, but usually when systems require this much input, there's a better way to deal with it

[@thoughtfox2409]

@@maxkauffman6289 The better way to deal with it is not to build a city were there is so much snow. And an underground metro still requires snow removal, unless you want to run the metro autonomosly and empty from your home. Workers need to get to the metro, the passengers need to go to and from the metro etc. Also the roads have to be clear for the necessery stuff, like garbage trucks, fire engines, ambulances, police cars, cargo trucks for food etc.
