Ice Storm photos

I am incredibly thankful that we very infrequently get severe ice storms in Wisconsin. How does one define severe? Well, I think these photos from last week's ice storm in Nebraska make it pretty clear.

I spoke with someone in Nebraska on Friday. They had only had their power restored on Friday (the storm occurred just before New Year's), and as soon as it came back up, it went out again. I've experienced a few ice storms here in Wisconsin, but nothing as bad as what they've had to deal with.

Update
The photographer of the shots linked above is having some bandwidth issues this month due to the overwhelming amount of traffic he's receiving. You may want to check out the photos on Flickr in order to help him out.
