The winter storm that deposited more than 2 feet of snow in some parts of the Northeast left McMinnville with an official total of 3.5 inches and some parts of the county with more than that.“There were 8 and 9 inches of accumulation in some areas of the county and we were having to move snow drifts as deep as 3 feet,” said Road Superintendent Levie Glenn, whose department worked around the clock throughout the weekend in what seemed, at times, to be an unwinnable battle against Mother Nature. “We would put down salt and come by with the plow and it’d just fall again right behind us and the temperature was making it hard for the salt to work. It got down into single digits at one point during the weekend.”Glenn said the road department used 150 tons of Morton’s salt to combat the ice, much of which was made worse by heavy rain that preceded the snow that started before noon Friday.“Since we had the rain, the snow stuck to the road very quickly,” Glenn said.
