The ice storm started on Monday, February 11th with rain and sleet. Schools were let out in the morning because the roads were getting slippery. It rained during the night and then more rain, freezing rain, sleet all day on Tuesday. Our power went out late afternoon and was out for five hours. The temps were in the 20s and in the teens at night. It was so slippery it was hard to walk. There was 3/8 of an inch of ice on the mailbox on Tuesday. These pictures were taken on Tuesday and Wednesday, when a little sun finally came out. Some people still don't have power today. They have opened up warming shelters for those without power.
