    Ice

    Here's some pics from last night's (and today's) ice storm.

    This is a small cherry tree we planted.

    This is some of the netting on top of the coop. This is made from knitted nylon.

    Here is the handle on the frost free. I figure the handle is about 1/2 inch think. Which makes the ice about the same.

    Rich,

    Try to stay home tomorrow. If your roads are like ours it'll be pretty iffy. Salt truck has been past about 6 times today. It's hard for the guys to keep up. So far, we've only lost power for about 3 hours last night, but it's flashed a few times today.

    Nice pictures. We'll have something like that about once every 10 years, but not this late in the year. [img]/forums/images/icons/laugh.gif[/img]

    Bird,

    We usually don't get them this late either. Usually this is January or February weather.

    I just finished watching the weather. The forecast for tonight is 24 degrees, with up to 1/2 inch of additional ice, followed by 1 to 3" of snow and the possibility of a thunderstorm.

    Sounds like even the weatherman is getting confused.

    Steve
