Day 5: A bit late for Christmas trees?

Who needs baubles when you've got freezing rain? Not so great for the roads, or for cars parked outside, but pretty spectacular for the on-looker. This morning every twig and blade of grass had a little ice jacket and the trees had their own decorations.

Later the temperature rose enough for these sheets of ice to start falling from the high branches of the trees making spectacular crashing sounds on the roof and through the other trees.
