- A rare ice storm this time of year in eastern North Dakota has caused significant tree damage and knocked power out for over 5,000 people. In Oriska, ND, I measured 1 1/4" of ice on several downed branches. The I-94 Oriska rest area took an extreme hit as seen in this video.

So quiet, you can't believe it.. What an ice- storm!!!!! That wind is something else!!!! Hoping everyone is alright... 🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤.....
Nightmares in winter always start with ICE. Prayers for all those affected. That care of each other...no one else will.
If the crossing lights are flashing, it may not be the gates held down by weight of the ice on em. Ice may have cause a short circuit in the crossing or the rails leading to it, causing the crossing gates and lights to activate.
Anytime there is a fault in a railway crossing guard it goes into a fail safe mode, the arms go down and the lights flash. The way that arm was "jumping" makes me think it was trying to work (go back up) but it couldn't because of the weight of the ice. They use a 12vdc motor which is geared down a lot, so it has a lot of torque to drive the crossing guards (arms). Interesting fault mode there.
Oak trees are very susceptible to ice breakage. They are lucky all the leaves were down. Some areas have oaks that still have some (10%) of their leaves which would be more locations for ice to form in the treetops snapping them.
Please stay home and avoid injury. Prayers for all to endure this time of year.
The northeast went thru that in 1998.I wouldn't wish that on anyone.Please stay safe.
1:52 neat to see a crossing that still has incandescent bulbs in the banners! I suspect that if Safetran was still in Minnesota this sorta stuff would probably not happen. Sadly they left at the beginning of the century for Kentucky.
Wow. Beauitful and yet terrible. Hope they have power.
Looking for a nice place to spend the winter. Let's see what we can find. Barnes County North Dakota? Sounds like a nice place to live. No hurricanes or volcanoes to worry about. Maybe I'll check it out around Christmas time...oops!
Yikes! Ice like that will absolutely mess up a power grid for weeks.
😯
Barnes County was hit really bad, but so were nearby counties. Out in both Dickey and LaMoure Counties power was off for almost 2 weeks it was the worst ice-storm to hit SC North Dakota in over 30 years.
Had close to .5 inch ice here in Grand Forks ND
I remember in the early 70s when I was in elementary school in Morris County, NJ, one winter there was an ice storm like that. One particular road had white birches along both sides of it. The trees were all bent over into the road, so the road was completely blocked. Of course the kids on the bus were telling the driver "Drive through it! Drive through it!" Of course she didn't, but turned around and found an alternate route. Edit: I was one of the kids who did not say that.
It's like walking on oily glass.
I feel that pain here in Texas 2 years back was 2 weeks long and it was horrible no electricity and no water😢
Excellent video. Any damage to wind turbines?
🍭SWEET🍭Thank You🙏🏼💖👍🏻🌞
Love freezing rain!
I guess freezing rain is nice to look at - *but it's not pleasant to drive or walk in*
It's cool but totally destructive. We lost most of the trees in our city (Sioux Falls) due to an ice storm in April of 2014.
It’s beautiful
Oh boy.
Reminds me of the Ice Storm of 1998. Similar level of destruction
Hope they have a warm up that melts the ice!
Well, on a positive note being at this ice storm occurred out in North Dakota. There won’t be much tree cleanup.
😮😮
My brother lives in minot ND so I know he's OK but he always shows me how bad their weather is!!!
I’ll never miss the sound of driving on icy roads
Sorry for you all.
Wow lots of ice build up. Not good
whole bunch of pics but all same place??
I wanted to see the train, lol, unless the gate was malfunctioning
I'd take a foot of snow over a 10th of an inch of freezing rain any day.
So sad.
I hope no one is calling the government and demanding services that they didnt pay for.
Greta Thunbergs "Global Warming" - HA-HA-HA-HA- !!!!
So much for climate alarmists and their AGW. Lol.
If it was colder it would've been fluffy snow.

So you think when ice forms on trees it's warm? Got it. Lmfao.
@@freedomforever6718 Tell me you don’t know how freezing rain works without telling me you don’t know how it works.

To have snow and ice it has to be cold. This is what you evidently fail to understand. Cope.
