Midwest ICE STORM?!?!

[Birdhunter1]

Down in Bonne Terre, MO. There's a nice sheet of ice on the cars, fences, and buildings. Roads are still ok. I suspect that's due to the warm temps we've had the past couple of days. If the precip keeps coming, we're in for some pretty heavy ice coverage. Glad I don't have anything pressing me to get back out in it until it thaws.

Same thing in Carbondale in Southern Illinois.. w.e are just due east of you. Rain is falling to the ground and not freezing on the roads or sidewalks but everything else is icing.

Leaving east central Georgia about 4pm this afternoon headed into the Nowata Oologa area with any luck we should arrive around 5-6am.

Gonna be some slick roads. Could be worse. Has been worse.

I think the worst of it for us in Eastern Kansas is supposed to be Saturday thru Sunday. The Chiefs game right across the border in Missouri could be a SLEET BOWL.

We are just on the northern fringe. It's just a wait and see right now. Nothing as of yet.

Yeah I don't expect anything up here until Saturday night into Sunday.

Lost a lot of tree limbs today and the weatherman is calling for up to another .25 inch of ice accumulation tonight. Glade the tractor is parked behind the left door. I can still get it out.

We are getting it for several hours already. But the ice accumulation is low so far. Looking at the Doppler NWS - National Mosaic Enhanced Radar Image: Full Resolution Loop we will get hammered tomorrow.
