A couple of weeks ago, 3/4″ of snow fell here.  Last night and today we’re having our second winter event in the form of ice accumulating on trees, decking, etc.

The third ice storm of the season was even more spectacular a day later as the sun shined down upon the ice laden trees. My wife snapped this great photo on a road winding through the glass-like trees.

Last night, we experienced the third ice storm this winter. At Old Dominion Wildlife Headquarters, ice was mainly confined to rocks and decking. However, there was significant ice on trees just a mile north at lower elevations. In this photo, a 500 kV power line passes by ice covered trees.

Here’s another photo taken during today’s ice storm.

There looks to be about 1/4 inch of ice is coating the trees today at Old Dominion Wildlife headquarters. Power has flickered off a couple of times, but is on for now. Tonight’s breezy weather could cause power line trouble.

This photo was taken around dusk after the ice storm.
