| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | Freezing rain with temperatures around 32 degrees fahrenheit caused 1/4 to 1/2 inch of ice to form on colder surfaces such as trees and power lines which were downed by the added weight. This resulted in numerous power outages. Some basements filled with water because of the lack of power to run electrical sump pumps. Many trees and branches were downed on cars. Scores of traffic accidents occurred as roadways were transformed into hockey rinks. Throughout the day on the 14th, patchy freezing rain continued, accompanied by gusty winds, resulting in a few more downed trees. |
