Bundle up, folks. This season will be a snowy one. While last year’s weather was eventful, there was more variability—alternating between rain, ice and snow. This year, forecasters are predicting less variety, anticipating a sustained cold that could make snow more prevalent.
BrightView is proud to be a the exclusive partner and only certified service provider in the Mid-Atlantic to offer this first-of-its-kind ice removal product that was recently awarded the Green Seal® Certification for innovation.
Liquid brine allows for safer movement of traffic in light to average precipitation until treatments with solid products are made and it also speeds up the process of removal by facilitating better plowing conditions and increasing the efficacy of post-storm solid ice melter applications.
Snow shoveling might not be effortless, but it can be painless. Each year there are more than 11,000 injuries related to snow shoveling.
Early WeatherWorks predictions, based on El Niño patterns, predict cooler conditions across much of the East Coast due to a stormy pattern pulling cool air into the region. Based on past winters with similar early predictors, meteorologists are initially predicting a snowfall 33 percent above yearly averages.
Within the first three weeks of March, four nor'easters pummeled the Northeast, dropping record amounts of snowfall in many cities, strong winds knocking out power to millions, and icy floods to coastal areas.
Colleges and universities across the country are facing intense pressure to reduce costs and increase spending efficiency. You can reduce operational spend while making a positive impact on one of your campus' most valuable assets - your landscape.

You can't plan the weather, but you can lay the groundwork for a successful winter season with your snow and ice removal provider. Start early and be sure to ask your current or potential provider these important questions.
Snowfall can vary substantially and even with resources like NOAA to turn to for seasonal forecasts, knowing what to budget and predicting costs can be difficult guesswork. It pays to sign on early with a qualified snow and ice removal provider, but what kind of contract is right for you?
