Salt only lowers the freezing point a few degrees, and this does initially slow ice growth. But once ice forms, most salt is either not incorporated or drains out eventually, so its influence is minimal.

Does salt melt on cold mornings?

Salt doesnt melt, it is absorbed, and as for melting on cold mornings.... name something that does melt on a cold morning.----Salt will cause water ice to soften and melt unless the temperature is very cold (much colder than you're ever likely to see this side of the arctic circle). the salt itself doesn't melt; it converts the ice around it to water and dissolves in that water, allowing it to spread out and melt more ice.

Ice cube with salt. The salt disrupts the lattice formation in the ice, lowering the melting temperature. As the salt melts ice, the surface area exposed to the salt increases, further perpetuationg the reaction.
