: So much for my little experiment CEM. As to just what these black specks are or where they came from (the source) I have no idea nor would I even venture a guess.
I would mention that up here in the frigid north of New York if you
want to know what is in that snow, just look at our snow here.
If the snow falls today it will be nice clean and white.
Come back several weeks (months) from now and you'll find the snow
very different. It will be caked brown, have lots of trash in
it, and who knows what other junk is in it. And that all makes
it's way into the water supply.
Now to be fair alot of that stuff in the snow is road salt and sands for the inevetable ice. But there is also lots of other stuff in there too.
I would also point out that we'll have huge piles of that
will still be around in june due to all junk in that snow.
