Why are power failures a common occurrence with ice storms?
The reason for the power failures being common with ice storms.
During hail storm, the super cooled water in its liquid form falls down and as soon as it touches any surface such as ground, tree, pole, electric and telephonic lines, and so on, it freezes. Thus, ice covers the surface of the power lines and makes them fall down...
