Ice storms typically end when temperatures rise above freezing, causing the ice to melt. Alternatively, if the storm moves away, the precipitation may cease, bringing the ice storm to an end. Treatment with salt or other de-icing methods can also help alleviate the impact of ice storms.

Do ice storms happen near the coast or inland?
Ice storms can occur both near the coast and inland, but their frequency and severity may vary based on geographical location. In coastal areas, ice storms are less common due to the moderating effect of the ocean on temperatures. Inland regions are more prone to experiencing ice storms, especially during winter months when cold air masses collide with warmer air masses.
How long do Ice storms normally last?
An ice storm can last anywhere from about half an hour long to weeks, even months. There is no average. Some countries are in an ice storm for half of the year. Some places only see an ice storm once a decade, or less often.
Is there another type of storm other than a thunder storm?
Yes. There are blizzards, snow storms, dust storms, ice storms, tornadoes (though they come from thunderstorms), and cyclones (including hurricanes).
Where do ice storms occur?
Ice storms are characterised by 1/4 inch or more of ice falling during freezing rain, which usually has to occur for several hours. According to research at the University of Oklahoma, this sort of freezing rain which can produce ice storms is most likely to occur throughout the Appalachian Mountains in central North Carolina, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and New York, and the Columbia River Valley in southern Washington and northern Oregon. Ice storms have been known to also hit Oklahoma. Another common area for their occurrence is in New England, and Canada. Two requirements for ice storms are extremely cold temperatures, and enough moisture in the atmosphere to produce sufficient precipitation. They often form when an area of low pressure moves eastward across the northern Gulf of Mexico. In the United States, ice storms occur most often during December and January and near sunrise, which is usually the coldest time of the day. Ice storms are relatively unknown in Europe, but they are occurring with increasing frequency by comparison to the past.
What time of the year do ice storms occur?
Ice storms typically occur during the winter months when temperatures are cold enough for precipitation to freeze upon contact with surfaces. They are most common in regions experiencing cold weather conditions.
