Ice in mid-Missouri has been a challenge too. For the last few days my scanner has received countless accident calls. Ice is causing a lot of destruction. On the highway, I was narrowly missed by a huge thick sheet of ice that flew off a car about six car lengths ahead of me. The ice sheet slammed onto the road a few feet in front of me. I'm glad it didn't come through the windshield. Iced down trees and powerlines have fallen across the roadways, on cars, and houses. On Monday, a 56 year old man was cutting down a tree when another tree fell on him. He didn't survive. This probably sounds obvious but if you're out there be extra careful around ice laden trees and power lines. They have come down rather suddenly.
