The Oklahoma Ice Storm is Over!

For now, anyway. They fixed the power on my street this evening, so we’re finally off the generator and can turn on all the lights. We took quite a hit – this area lost so many old trees, literally ripped out of the ground in some cases, by the ice storm – it was a mini Tunguska.

Oklahoma gets hit with an ice storm usually every December and February, because it’s not cold enough for the water coming down to become snow. So it comes down wet and freezes on contact, taking car mirrors, siding on houses, and trees with it.
