See, we love snow so much that when it snows, we bring the extra down to the "snow bank" ... just kidding!

Snowbanks are just big piles of snow, usually the result of plowing or shoveling. Plows just push all the snow from the road itself to the side, so streets end up with continuous mounds of snow along the edges - the more snow, the higher the snowbank gets! It is soft at first, but often temperature warm abit during the day then cool back off at night, and the snowbank can freeze pretty solid.
