Freezing rain last night and this morning, turning to rain this afternoon. Supposed to be another bad storm coming tomorrow.

I want to move to Hawaii.
I'm more than ready for Hawaii too Dot!
we had what you have first, about 3-4" inches today, by Christmas night the cold plunge, back to single digits. :( It's gonna be a long winter!
 
Freezing rain coated the trees in ice. It was dangerously beautiful. Luckily power stayed on. Low of 1F tonight.
 
Hahahaha. It's minus stupid cold right now here. Wind chill not included.

Ice storm in southern Ontario. Toronto has lost probably 10% of its mature trees; the damage is just devastating. Some of my neighbours have been without electricity for 2 days now, and even though the storm has ended, frozen branches continue to break off, often onto power lines. We're a hair's breadth away from a state of emergency in Toronto.

I guess we shared our ice storm with you. Very similar situation here.

For some reason, your pictures aren't showing.
 
The ice storm wasn't so fun :(
Its hard to believe something as simple as ice can break so many big tree limbs.

I posted links to my photos from another forum. They show up for me, but I guess not for anyone else. Here they are:

Cloudy windy and cold. With 4-8" of snow in the forecast for tonight, I may be parking my car at the road end of my 1/4 mile driveway. Will get colder and windier the next few days, dipping below zero F in wind chill and then at night. ..... and then warming back up next week

A little chilly here today; high of 76 but I am not worried. Going to the Big Island of Hawaii where a storm front is moving in. Hopefully it will snow up on Mauna Kea. My better half has never seen snow, it would be a nice treat for her...
 
Al, your photos look like they were taken here. I hope everyone over there by you have their power back. Some around here still don't, after 12 days!
 
Forecast low was 5F. It's now -2F. Forecast high Monday is 2F. It snowed yesterday, my normal hour and fifteen commute to work more than doubled...
