Sunshine on Ice Covered Trees

We got some sunshine the last couple days. Trouble is that it didn't warm enough to get rid of the ice coating the trees. The ice did begin to drip but not for long as the temperatures stayed below freezing even in the sunshine. We are heading into a warming trend the next few days and rain is predicted. Thank goodness that means that the ice will disappear. There was a lot of damage to trees in the area, some of them falling on vehicles. One tree in our backyard lost a limb, which didn't do any damage. The golden light of the warm sun on the icy trees made for a pretty sight. This is across the street from our house.

a wonderful combination of conditions....yes the warming trend is welcome, even if it means more grey, rainy days in the northwest..
