ice storm damage
Glaze event aftermath
Ice storm damage is destruction or harm caused when freezing rain accumulates on surfaces, coating trees, power lines, and structures with heavy ice.
Branches snap under the weight, power outages spread as lines collapse, and roads become impassable.
The aftermath can leave communities without electricity for days: The ice storm damage kept crews working around the clock.
