I live in Derby, KS and it is Ice covered here as well. I remember in 2005 when we had an ice storm that knocked power out for a majority of the metro area. I was without power for a week! My neighbor wasn't so lucky. I tree limb fell on his overhead power line and ripped the meter clean off his house!

Hard to say, it's supposed to be 82 again here today.
