Sleet/freezing rain/ice storm.

We are buried in ice here, cable's out now, and I am offline
off and on.
Can't get up the driveway, can't hardly walk on it.
Not that cold, 29* right now, BUT
About 1/4 inch of ice on everything now, and gonna get a lot worse overnite.
How's the weather in your area?

Same ice crap on the ground here, but it's about 3/4" thick and now tonight it has started to snow so the snow on the ice is real fun. Supposed to turn to rain by morning. Just great, I get to work in this crap again. Temp has been pretty warm lately though, we have had highs in the 20's instead of single digits like last week or so.

The highways and main roads are in pretty good shape today.
I got up the driveway at lunchtime but it's still covered in ice.
That's I-77 you can see in the uppermost part of the pic.
