It snowed this morning, not much but enough to stick in spots- I have this one spot in my driveway where snow takes forever to melt, trying to understand why? It's probably been going on forever but I finally noticed it last January, so I took a couple of pics, this is one-
418499
notice that there's no snow on the ground anywhere else in the camera view!
This I took a few minutes ago- not exactly the same spot but same general place--
418500
my guess is it's a simple explanation, such as the concrete is much thicker there, or much thinner-? If it was thinner I would think the concrete-53 years old- would be broken up, but it's not. And whether it's thicker OR thinner, no where else in the general vicinity is concrete or asphalt holding onto snow like this, so how much thinner or thicker than the neighborhood average thickness would it have to be to be so much colder? All the concrete is from the original pour except for the far left section, which my dad added around 1970, if that matters...
