The almost whole inch we did get was enough to stop the city of Portland for two days.

Nobody suggested de-ice spray?

Mind we usually only get a handful of icey days here and a good bit of snow every 2-3 years, so we be winter amateurs, but de-ice spray makes it so much easier to get the car out in the mornings, rather than waiting on it thawing on the windows.

There is always the kettle of hot water too. Don't suggest boiling though.

The spray may work OK for all you cold amateurs but for us cold weather guys we would need massive amounts to chew through the ice at -20.



And if anybody here dumps even slightly too warm of water on their glass they will find any chips in a hurry as the cracks spread across the windows like a cartoon road map.
