Why? We are at 55n not the tropics. It doesn't get hot here.
Rural roads melt but thats really all.

These aren't very exciting as I took them out the window on the way to town, but it's a beautiful day.
At 42F / 6C with the sun beating on it, the snow is melting and the road was actually pretty slick
The real view was so much prettier than my photo, but here it is anyway
Baby snow banks
It's so warm that down low, it's just wet and muddy

Beautiful scenery there. Mountains look great with the snow.
