Icy Times

Before we enter the timeframe of the POSSIBLE ice/snow of tomorrow, take a look at this beautiful tree in Ashe County, taken last Friday.  It was totally iced over early that morning.


Covered in ice it began to split down the middle as it reached its branches from the normal of 6+ feet above the driveway to touching the cement.



A strong wind or even a longer period of ice on the tree would probably have led to its demise...

But the ice melted by noon so the stately tree returned to its upright state of beauty.
The prediction for tomorrow in Ashe County... 10-14" of snow!
