Driving was proving treacherous, though the roads were mostly wet Tuesday evening as the relentless Winter of 2011 marches on.
I took a short walk downtown and saw a Wesleyan Public Safety vehicle which had been t-boned at the intersection of Pearl and Washington.
A block away, a firetruck served as warning for a traffic light that wasn't working at Broad and Washington, and in fact the entire length of Broad Street was dark due to a power outage caused by a blown transformer. Crosswalk signals were out too.
The ice storm was making even the most common branches works of art. And Jesus was sprouting icicles too.
Main Street was quiet, and slick. A warning for the morning ahead.

Beautiful pix! If it weren't so dangerous it would be enjoyable.
Thanks for the personal report on conditions in Middletown. Photos tell a great story.
When I first read this I could have sworn Ladycyclist had posted it, as we took many of the exact pictures as we were walking thru the icy "wonderland" that was the Village District and downtown after the ice storm!!! What a beautiful evening, for those with traction on their feet!
