I had to let the engine run for about an hour today, but I finally melted off most of the ice. Some slid off in great glass sheets; some came cracking off in an explosion, when I opened a door; and some stubborn stuff--on the windshield--had to be chiseled with the scrapper after much defrosting from the inside. If you enlarge the picture you can see that the icicles actually anchored the vehicle to the ground.

Frozen to the Driveway

We're finally losing most of our ice too. Because of our metal roof we have a lot of those great sheets of sliding ice. It makes me nervous anytime I step out from under an eave.
Just when you think everything will defrost...here comes another storm!
