The same push broom that you use to chase off leaves will work well on soft dry snow. It'll take awhile but so would a snow shovel.

Take it in stages. Rest in between.

All 254 counties in Texas were under a winter storm watch (must be a record) and will be. Stay safe and stay inside and welcome the sunshine today! MAGA ON!

Yes — a broom works great.

I use one for my porches and steps.

Also you don’t have to clear a super wide path — just enough for two boots side by side.

And, if you don’t have any ice melt — table salt (I prefer diamond kosher salt in the big box) works great on slick ice patches. Don’t salt the whole area just the spots with ice — you could easily run out of salt...

Please clear the entire walkway and not just a skinny path.

Well, in Syracuse, NY -- people just walk in the streets -- really. I don't know why but they do...

I used to clear the whole sidewalk -- but people still walked in the streets. So - now, I just do what I have to do to keep the government from fining me. And, if someone wants to walk on the sidewalk, which they never do, they have a clear path -- about 1.5 to 2 feet wide...

It works for me ....

And, for all the people in Texas having to clear sidewalks who are not in top shape -- they should make it as easy on themselves as possible because moving snow is a great deal of work.

Works for you....of course. You're not pushing a stroller. You're not walking side by side with a little one. More so, all that snow you've left on the pavement will now easily melt right into the ditch you're so proud of and make the whole thing slick.

Take an extra 10 whole minutes and clear it off you lazy fuck. The rest of us would appreciate it.
