I had started shoveling the deck last night but stopped midway as I realized it would be much safer walking on ice covered snow than ice-covered decking. Glaze in full effect at this point with the ice on the trees. Enjoy it while it last. 24.8* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILL N OF PIKE Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Does anyone see an area of potential outages given current temps, the cad, and now perhaps a better idea of QPF based on radar. Im very curious to see how Gyx and box do wrt ice accumulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
