| Ice-covered flowering pear tree |
This morning, we looked out to find that everything was covered in a quarter-inch layer of ice. Every flower, every wire, every blade of grass was encased. My flowering pear tree, which had been looking so lovely with the most flowers it's ever had, was weighted down so that the branches curved to the ground.

| Daffodils with ice |
My little pop-up greenhouse was sagging down, crushed with the weight of ice, and the support pole had poked through the plastic wall.
News stories show branches down, and trees splitting in half. We're supposed to get another quarter-inch of ice yet today, so if that does happen, that means more tree damage, more wires down, and possibly power outages.
