I wondered the same thing, how do people get out of the house?

Oh, and I'm sure the Ice wold melt top side down, I think. I wonder what kind of damage happens when all the water spills into the cracks of the house that the Ice probably made?

The thing that would really suck is if the ice melted a little.. then refroze. That'll definatly mess up the house there. And if the house will freeze over in the first place than that is probably going to happen. Unless if gets Florida warm up here... which I doubt. :stickpoke

These are ocean front homes. It's quite possible that the house in the IOD is an unheated summer residence. If so, the ice won't melt from interior heat. That's good. It's best for it to melt from the outside in and let the water run down the outside of the ice as it melts. Less damage that way.

I would guess (a) she wasn't home at the time, and/or (b) the other side of the house (away from the ocean) isn't frozen.

A good, powerful hair dryer would do the trick I imagine.

Heh

I've had a running car ice over like that despite the big block under the hood and the heaters going full blast. Freezing rain can take the heat away way faster than the windows are heated by the furnace.

brrrrrrrrrrrrr!
