Meh... so far not such a big deal. We have several inches of snow out there... probably close to 6", but nothing to get freaked about. I guess the biggest part of the storm passed us by.
We DO have snow over ice though, and while I was outside shoveling my walk, I heard a tree nearby start cracking and splitting.
The powerlines don't appear to be sagging or anything though... I've seen them weighed down by ice before, so that they sagged a good 6' or more.
We've only had a very brief period of power flickering here so far (yesterday... knock on wood). So far, nothing to really be concerned about. I could probably get out and drive around if I needed to. The road appears mostly clear, but on checking the Dept of Trans road conditions, some roads are closed due to trees falling.
