Seriously? A flamethrower? Maybe you should let welts know about this. She has given up on trying to get her car out from its block of ice. I'm glad I'm not a Canadian. The northern areas of the US have enough weather problems.

I would recommend a group of men with shovels and snow blower before the flamethrower.
It's not even bad yet. It's bad when the snow is so high, you almost get the nose of your car taken off trying to see if anyone is coming. Or nothing is moving.

My best recommendation is to move somewhere where it doesn't snow. Easiest snow removal I've ever had. Seriously...it may snow once every few years but it's no more than an inch or two and certainly doesn't stick around long. But yes....flamethrower would be optimal and fun at the same time.  |

Nah, a flamethrower might get a bit messy  Plus, if all you do is melt the snow without drying off the pavement, then it will just turn to ice!
Having spent over two decades in Wisconsin, unfortunately the only perfect way to shovel the snow is to have someone else do it for you...why do you think people in Wisconsin have kids? Snowblowers are a close second, but if you're like me and have a house that faces north, all the snowblower does is kick up the snow so it blows right back in your face...damn snow!! |

When we left Michigan for Arizona we left the snow blower, snow shovel, lawn mower. No regrets LOL. Now we have some guys here every three months for yard clean-up and desert plant trimming.
Easiest snow removal around. |
