My driveway is just a little sand road, and yesterday I was thinking it "felt" funny when I drove down it. Was even more noticeable today. There are normally two very well packed tire tracks down the length of the driveway. Well today, the sand was very soft, almost sugary in a couple spots - I left tracks as I drove down. Seemed very unusual to me, usually the depth of the puddles is the only thing that changes.
So I'm thinking that the very cold temperatures followed by a quick thaw have loosened up the packed sand and made it soft again. Does that make sense? Anyone else seeing a similar phenomenon on sand roads? I think this is the first winter in recent years where we've had a cold spell this severe.
