Would you like to share your storm pictures here?
The news is carrying on and on about an ice storm we’re supposed to have. It is raining now and temps are dropping. I wonder if it will even come close to the one we had in Feburary of 2001. I have an entire small album of the pictures I took, but I can only find these three at the moment.
That was the strangest day. I woke up it was 28 degrees and raining steady. The temp stayed dead on 28 all day, and it was 28 when I went to bed. It rained all day and into the night.
It was freezing as it hit things and several inches of ice built up on everything.
About 8 p.m. the trees started breaking. Every few seconds you hear what sounded like gun shots, all though the night.
It looked like a war zone the next day.
It was so bizarre how the landscape changed. It was very confusing. I never realized how much I subconsciously counted on certain trees looking a certain way to help me stay oriented. It was like I’d drive down my street and suddenly not know where I was.
You can still see the effects to this day.
There were some spots of amazing beauty though. I had a bush that had these round, red berries on it. The ice had created a perfect, clear sphere around the berries. It looked like jewels.
