Ice Drizzle

 


The shiny river looking area in the photo is the smoothest ice I've ever experienced.  It looks textured BUT IT IS NOT.  It is smooth AF.  (The texture is from the surface underneath.)

We had the biggest ice storm in our area since 1996.  I kept expecting a lot of rain, but really it just drizzled.  But it was drizzling super-cooled water which turned to ice when it hit the ground.  The result of this drizzly super-cooled water was 3D printed smooth AF ice that was impossible to walk upon without slipping. 

We had to break some of it up our driveway so a car could get back into the garage.  We were only able to clear a path for the tires of the left side of the car!  That took two of us two hours.  We had to use a pickaxe to break the ice.
