ICE!!!!
In Central Missouri we have about 1" of ICE this morning! The worst I have seen. Walking outside about an hour ago I heard many trees/limbs snapping and falling. Many power lines are down now. If we get any wind at all today I expect the power lines to go down everywhere in the area.
I am an EMT/Firefighter (volunteer) and have missed 3 pages so far. The only people moving are those with chains... I wish I had put mine on.

Oh no! I remember the ice storms like that, awful destruction but absolutely beautiful. It's just too bad the beauty is shadowed by the people who you know are going to be harmed trying to walk or drive on it, the limbs falling, the trees killed, the power lines damaged, those w/o heat and power due to that...bleh.

They are beautiful, but treacherous!
Be careful.

Thanks for the concern friends.
Still have power - but the freezing rain is starting again... and many lines and trees are already down.
Weird thing - last night it was 25 degrees and from 2:00 to 6:00 AM it rained and THUNDERED. It was quite strange.

Thats because the air was a bit warmer in the upper atmosphere. The rain came down, and when it got to a lower altitude it began to freeze. This is the laymens term on why the frozen rain, lightning, thunder. This happens, but not frequently, which is why you find it strange. LOL!

We are also plagued with ice and such. They say more is on its way.
Around 3 am we were without electricity and heat..THAT wasn't plesant. It came back on around 11:30. This new batch of weather is suppose to be worse.
