It is easier and more efficient to remove snow imme-
diately after it falls.
The best time to remove snow is the early morning. At
this time the snow is usually dry and has not been ex-
posed to the direct sun and warming temperatures.
Slightly overlap each successive path to ensure all
snow will be removed.
