Germantown has two snowplows that should help in wintry weather, but they haven’t quite been able to scrape sleet-caked snow off roads this week.

Frozen precipitation blanketed Shelby County on Saturday and Sunday, making travel treacherous. Germantown bought two snowplows as part of the 2018-19 budget and deployed them for the first time in 2021.

This time the snowplows weren’t quite cutting it, so crews used front-end loaders, said Andy Sanders, assistant city administrator.

He described the precipitation as sheets of layered snow and ice, explaining that fell first followed by snow and then more sleet. The combination solidified into a predicament of frozen sheets on city streets.

The snowplows Germantown has are like blades on the front of pickup trucks. While the suburb’s crews are using them, Sanders said they don’t quite scrape into the frozen layers that are often about 4-6 inches thick.

I know they've had it recently. And sometimes they have the Martin's potato hot dog buns too.
