Looks like you guys were pretty lucky.

We had an ice storm here in 2000 and a pine tree crushed my Maxima; $3600 in damages!
 
Haha, wow that bites, the past today where I live has been pretty bad too, with ice and snow.
 
LOL, It rained cats & dogs the day after I got mine and was allowed to drive to school...I was so nervous!
 
i hate parking there, but it was the only spot left in the parking lot at the time. i figured i wouldn't have to worry about sap falling on my car in the winter. didn't figure on the tree falling. lesson learned. i think i am just going to stop parking in the lot, its a big pain in the ass anyway.
 
Cars parked under trees always seem to have the most bird poop and horrible leafy bits stuck to them.
 
Wow, Jason - the same thing happened to me forty days ago! I think our ice storm of 18/19 December, and what Louisville got, were about the same. I planned ahead, knowing that it was likely to get VERY bad - I wanted to be sure that I could get out if I needed to leave. Reasoning that it would prevent my driver's side door from being caked with a half inch or inch of ice possibly preventing me from being able to even enter my car to drive it away, I parked it under a tree, with the driver's side door facing west. (The storm was coming in on easterly winds.)

When the power went out, I knew it was time to try to leave. I was able to open the driver's side door right up, right away, without effort. But, I had to clear away some limbs before I could leave, one I estimate weighed about 300 pounds. Two fell onto the car, one about the size of the one in your picture, and it cracked the windshield. No actual hole, but quite an array of fractures.

Driving very carefully, I was able to make the 90-mile trip to Springfield IL. I figured that I'd best head for a town of larger size, rather than to a nearer town (such as Havana or Beardstown) where I might be able to find a hotel room, but no options for getting the windshield fixed on ZERO prior notice. I had also determined in advance that Springfield was the place to go if I was forced to leave, as they had gotten almost entirely rain instead of ice.

I had 2½ days of down time as a result, but I fortunately did manage to get my windshield replaced on that first day [Friday]. I was thankful, when I decided it was probably "safe" to go back home Sunday, that I found the power had come back on. I don't have a phone answering machine, which would have been one way I could have checked while away from home.

Now I know better than to park under a tree again, LOL - though I think I'd rather deal with the cracked windshield as I did, rather than have been trapped without any way to leave.

The door to my office is under the SAME tree where my car was parked. About 2 minutes after going into that door (from the house - where I had gone to fill up a couple of wastebaskets with warm water, in case I needed to de-ice my windshield in case I had to leave), I heard a loud CRASH! And, right where I would have been standing in order to open or leave through that door, a limb probably weighing about 200 pounds, had fallen. If my timing had been a little bit different, I could have easily been killed.

That tree will be coming down this year, I think - a two-minute lapse in timing is a little too close for comfort!

I'm glad you're both OK in all of this, Jason!
 
looks like a natural event, heavy snow broke tree branches ...
 
You live in Old Louisville, don't you? I was down there, this morning, delivering wine. I was amazed to see the number of trees down. 6th street looked like a war zone. All three of our sales reps, in Louisville, are without power.

yeah its a mess down here. people just don't know how to deal with snow. there were trees down all over the place with no signs at intersections to say the road was closed. people were drivin a mile an hour i'm just amazed.
