    Somewhere randomly within those deposits is a large boulder of solid ice that is too hard to break, too heavy to move, yet somehow occupies the middle of the snowpile.

      those are special gifts from when my neighbour across the street parks on the street on an obvious multiple-times-a-day plow day, and the plow repeatedly has to go around them and in doing so leaves extra crap on my driveway because it all slides off the plow as they turn around the parked car

        Usually, its from the freeze/melt cycle forming giant blocks of ice somewhere on the road … then the plow pushing a giant chunk right onto your driveway. Best time for this is usually at the end of winter when it’s constantly thawing then refreezing at night.
