    Ice storms are a hoarders dream, so many non hoarders with broken trees!

    Still south of us, currently... Looks to be about 1 1/2 counties south at the leading line... But we are below 32 at the current time...

    Salina, just started to sprinkle/spit here. Moved more splits into the garage and filled up the basket by the stove. Overnight might get interesting.

    I hope y'all don't get hit. An inch of ice destroys the trees and utilities. I hope to never see that again.

    Supposed to get hit here starting late Sunday,worst of it Monday AM around rush hour finally tapering off & warming up to late 30's by Monday afternoon.

    Forecast is up to .25 ice,occasionally a light snow shower mixed in. Grocery stores etc were nuts yesterday & especially today.Wont be too bad unless we get 30 MPH + gusts,that will bring widespread power outages.

    Thankfully no ice or rain here. Was beautiful yesterday and even better today. Not much melting going on yet but they say it should soon and a warm week is in store for us. Maybe a little ice in tomorrow morning.

    Same here. What was going to be three days of ice with accumulations of one half inch or more turned into six hours of glaze this morning, which is good!

    Started to sprinkle a couple of hours ago, 33 degrees. Guessing that we are going to get nailed. At least no wind today. Talking 10-15MPH tomorrow so we will see. Should have close to a weeks worth of wood in the garage ready to go.

    I'd move anything portable out for under any trees. I hope your structures fare better than mine have in the past.
