I've been at home for the past few days due to a major ice\sleet\snow storm here in Texas. The roads are pretty dangerous and work has been cancelled everywhere so I've had plenty of time to take photos around my neighborhood. I can only go outside in 20 minute intervals though... it's COLD - wind chills in the teens. Here's what I came up with today:

It isn't so much snow that sticks around - it's Sleet.
The snow pretty much melts away and then reforms as ice
No plant - not the grass
bushes
cacti
or the palms could escape the ice
cars
and trucks were both trapped by the ice
everyone stayed indoors today - check out the size of those icicles. Available as a stock image - Click here
