A half-inch of ice, sleet and freezing rain fell on top of several inches of snow throughout the Triad, parts of the Triangle, and along the Virginia border counties earlier this month. Heavy winds compounded the storm's effects, toppling trees and knocking out power in much of central North Carolina for several days.
