Is it better to use a snow blower to get rid of snow before ice comes…or wait until it’s all over?

We have four inches + of snow...ice will come tonight

    If it was me I would get rid of as much snow as possible. Heavy snow, and /or ice can tear up a blower real quick.

    I agree, get rid of as much as you can, before the ice comes… It will be much easier.

    i suppose youre not worried about traction or anything like that, but i do know that the highway dept. around here will leave a little snow on the road if an ice storm is approaching.but to save on the auger and shear pins in the blower i would shovel first then deal with the ice when its done coming

    I just heard a weather man say that it’s easier to get rid of the ice, if you leave alittle layer of snow underneath. That way when you go to remove it, there’s a softer cushion on the underside that will move easier.
