How Residential Deicing Works in Roy, Pierce County

Roy does not get snow often. Snow lies on the ground about 4 days a year, and only about 1.8 days bring 1 in or more. Just 1.1 days a year stay below freezing all day. That means the real risk is short and easy to miss: a freezing night after a damp evening, or a light snowfall that turns slick. About 3.45 light-snow days a year need deicing, and Roy averages 3.38 Winter Weather Advisories a year.
Bigger events do happen. Ice storms hit near Roy on Dec 23, 2022 and Jan 19, 2012. Ice like that is the reason to treat surfaces early.
