We don't get that kind of weather often here in Idaho, but I've driven in it a time or two, enough to know that I hate it. At least we have enough cold and snow, that most folks at least have traction tires or studs to help them along. Ice damage to trees and property affects just about everybody in a large area, and I feel for you folks who are going through this mess. Being without power for long periods isn't any fun at all. Hang in. They tell me that Spring is on the way.
