BOISE, Idaho - ACHD crews will be working around the clock clearing roads and dropping sand. Main roads, schools and hospitals get first priority. The crews are also busy trying to keep numerous hills in the county from becoming an icy roller coaster.
The steady snow fall made it hard for crews to keep roads clear on Monday. Superintendent of maintenance Randy Noble said once the snow stops falling they will be able to get to side roads and neighborhoods.
Once they are able to get to subdivisions ACHD says it will take six hours just to clear intersections.
If your street is particularly dangerous you can call ACHD and they will get to you as soon as they can.

Made comment this summer that with all of the evaporation going on with the hot weather, feeding all of the fires, causing corn fields to dry up, along with the massive amount of water the farmers were using from the aquifer, for those big agriculture sprinklers putting water up in the air, for sprinkling all kinds of crops, Food,Hay, Grain, Grass, but to no avail as the water from the sprinklers was evaporating before it came back and hit the ground for the plants, while ground flood irrigation put water back in to the aquifer plus watered the plants.
Made a comment, that with all of the evaporation of water, that there was a lot water building up in the sky and that as soon as we had cold weather come through, that the water was going to come back down as Snow or Ice.
Well lo and behold, it is heck when things come together and here come the snow, I guess this old Idaho Oaky was not so dumb after all
