We are in the midst of a winter ice storm which seems to be pretty bad. I went to bed, but the sound of trees falling and branches breaking just wouldn't stop. Ice has covered everything and it will probably continue on until morning.
So far, all my trees are standing, I think, it's too dark to see everything. But I may have some large branches down. The neighbors sound like they have had several trees fall.
The house is surrounded with huge trees. I think they are thick enough and strong enough to take this kind of weather, but they may lose some big branches from high up.
Fortunately, I had some tree trimming done in the late fall and got rid of some dead wood that surely would have fallen.
The morning should be interesting when I can see just what happened. Things are still cracking and falling all over the place.
But we have power, at least for now.
