It is pretty insane and knowing it could have been worse. Seeing poles snapped and trees 40 inches in diameter being brought down has been crazy to see too and I work with trees for a living lol. It shows tho we need to work on our electrical infrastructure
-
Quite the damage even in riverview mich
-
Power flicking more now with the winds
-
I agree 110% the last 3 we have had have been very photogenic and I’m more then happy to get the photos I did. Would be cool to see the sun come out b it as stated that would be disastrous with the wind coming thru even tho I’m still concerned about existing damage to trees that the wind will take down. The thunder ice was incredible imo. Hopefully we can get one more photogenic storm before severe season comes
-
The fact it was so widespread too. We dodged a bullet with the ice not sticking to a higher ratio. The tree limbs I agree was pretty crazy to hear

If it was a tad colder and roads were cold it would have been catastrophic. Working for the power company here I can say there are many distribution lines would not handle a .75 event even the subtransmission lines would have major problems. Speaking from what I seen so far. A lot of the lines and poles down here are 40+ years in age and then account for maintenance that has not been done on lines in 4 years or so.Lots of rain glad it did not all accrete

It goes to show we have a lot of advancements still needed that’s what I love about science. DTX being late to the ball game too. It is sad that most of the public won’t understand but I have nothing but mad respect for the meteorologists in those offices. Couldn’t imagine the pressure sometimes
-
Saving grace is most should melt off before winds kick in. Glad we don’t have a brutal cold snap to follow the ice storm

I feel you mine keep flickering because of tension somewhere on the lines powering my neighborhood. Freezing fog imby now
-
That’s what I’m wondering too. Everything is weighted down from the ice. 400k just in our power company’s service area feel like that will go to 500 of winds crank

Had power flicking all night somehow did not lose it. Looks rough in SE mich
-
Welcome back to the metro
-
Yeah little late to the ball game like DTX
-
Really starting to get thicc
-
Ohh now DTX upgrades

Thunder ice in canton. As Jim Cantore says incredible..
-
Power outages starting to go up in SE Mich
-
Very icy indeed. The creaking too
-
31/28 and holding still

On the wish list is a thunder ice storm. Wonder if the rain switch over will verify
-
Pic might not do justice but definitely .2 roughly so far. Trees really creaking with the ice

31/28 here in canton as I sit here waiting for the ice storm warning
