Springfield, IL Ice Storm

Photos from the December 2007 Springfield, IL Ice Storm...






The gates were locked at Marine Point on Lake Springfield.
What? They didn't want us spinning doughnuts here?


The lake water level is still really, really low.
We shouldn't even be able to see that lower "beach" area.


Blades of grass glazed in ice.


I saw WAY too many people driving with side and rear windows that looked something like this.
If windows have the visual texture of an orange peel, then the ice truly needs to be scraped off.

Make sure your driver can see out of ALL of the vehicle's windows, and be able to use all of the mirrors.
Otherwise, you're pretty much asking for a tragedy to happen.
