East Syracuse runs on shift changes, and the lots out past Carrier Circle have to be open before the first one starts. JMC Enterprises Inc plows in the four o'clock dark, laying out wide passes across acres of blacktop while the wind comes flat across the Bridge Street flats. Commercial snow work is a logistics problem with a deadline nobody can move: the storm decides when, the shift decides by when. When it goes well, a thousand people arrive, park and never once consider the ground under their boots. There's a certain pride in a lot that looks like it never snowed at all.
