I'm sure you've had to chip 3/16" or thicker freezing rain off'n your windshield at oh-dark-thirty or so...

and off the door handle :D

Whoops... went out to mess with the new... uh, cupholders.

But yes, have had ice like that. Not often here, but when it happens... its a real bugger.

Have also gotten to go out with a baseball bat and smack ice off the superstructure of an icebreaker... its a wonderful catharsis after weeks and weeks of messdeck duty. :-)
