Bill got caught in the ice storm on the way home from Chicago last night. He's ok, but you should have seen the ice buildup on his car this morning - thick line of ice all the way up the radio antenna and sideburns of ice on both sides of the front of the car - basically the car looks windswept with ice.
The ice on the trees is pretty, of course, even with the awareness that it might break them (I saw a few down on my way to work). And thankfully most of the sidewalks and roads are just wet, not slippery.
