I don’t know why I didn’t post this photo earlier – it was taken Jan 29th after we had a blizzard. Because of hurricane strength winds, it was hard to measure. I took 20 readings along our driveway and came up with 16″, but many people around us were in excess of 20 inches.
The following week we had another hurricane strength wind storm with sleet and freezing rain. Despite some ice buildup, my antenna managed to stay up in the air. I had done some math and calculated that 1/4″ of ice (total diameter, not radius) would add about 500 pounds to my Inverted-L antenna wire. We had about half that much ice here.
