Ice storms are no fun. Stay home or ice skate on the streets like we did when I was growing up. Heat may be a problem. Might invest in a generator.

It’s also some weird, mutant super-ice. I’ve never seen anything like this. The ice chipper barely dents it and it will NOT melt. Actually, the snow tonight will probably be good because at least that can crunch down and you can walk in it. I WAY prefer snow to ice!

Years ago we had the mother-of-all-ice-storms up here in the mountains and it was surreal. All of the trees were bent down so that the tops were touching the road - which was, of course, not passable. Of course the power was out. I think during that I bailed and stayed with my brother in Jersey (yes, even New Jersey is better than staying in a place without power in the winter for a week). :-)
