Ice storm/freezing rain

Just as predicted the freezing rain started last night.  If you are not familiar with freezing rain, when it touches something it encased it, see bottom left photo.  There really is nothing to do until it thaws, much more dangerous  than snow.  The patio steps looked like rain water, until you reached out and touched them and it was solid clear ice.  Needless to say I did not go outdoors today.  I open the front door, sat on the floor inside and used the big lens to take a few shots in the courtyard.
