As mentioned in the previous story, wind from the east mixing with Alaskan
storms produce ice storms and freezing rain all over the city. Imagine it--
rain that falls to near the ground then freezes into icicles! It forms a thick
hard sheath of ice that covers everything: the cars, the mailboxes, the gutters,
the ground and the sidewalks. Now I know where black ice comes from. There are
pictures of car
popsicles posted!
