I thought that might be the case when I went out late morning with a shovel (in M'boro). I realized quickly that the stuff was so heavy and stiff, yet barely an inch total, that I'd be hours trying to do it that way. So I got the snowblower out, and it handled that stuff quite well, scraping under the crust on top to the wet snow beneath and throwing the mix 30' away and into the woods. I still had to take the wide push shovel to the last 1/8" of slop left behind, so it wouldn't freeze later tonight, but that was easy enough.
