gatergal...the groundhog is obviously not from this state! :)
catmandoo...I've been watching these icicles a few blocks from my house for the last few weeks. They reached the ground yesterday, so decided it was time to take a picture!

Hi key1awe...this isn't my home, but I was curious as to why some houses are forming these huge icicles compared to others. Thanks for making this point!

Thanks springsun and ruralartist. They had a news report on today about the severe ice dams that are forming on the roofs, such as this one. One home owner said this was the worst he has seen in 30 years of living in Minnesota.
