The town’s in a panic since an ice storm is on the way. (Mob the grocery stores! Load up on milk and bread!)
Maybe. Texas weather is notoriously famous for not delivering on the predictions. But drivers’ concerns are well-founded: Attempting the steep Hill Country roads that Austin suburbs have encompassed is dangerous business when icy. And forget about the infamous TXDOT flyovers. They ice over even when it’s merely raining.

Nonetheless. What could be more appealing to an Austin photographer who only sees snow when she heads out West to ski in it . . . than nature encased in ice? The last time this opportunity arose for me was 2007. I took full advantage of it, right in my own front yard. No skidding necessary. ♣
