Freezing rain crushes farm trees, breaks irrigation/water systems and knocks out power for over a week. We were lucky because Wet Rock Headquarters had gas heat, gas water heat, a gas stove top and Cell Phones. Also, moving food from refrigeration out to ice chests worked well for most of the time due to the cold weather. The first few days and nights you could hear the trees and electrical infrastructure breaking in all directions. I saw flashes like lightning I assume were from exploding electrical gear. It was especially loud all night long with gun-fire like cracks and loud ice/branch-falling. I wish I had recorded the night sounds. We did not photograph everything as it was too dangerous during and rather depressing after. Here are some photos of the ice and damage:
