Default In-flight icing

Some may find this interesting.

Today as I drove home in a snowstorm, three large objects fell from the sky onto the street in front of me. I stopped to see what they were. They turned out to be three metalized Mylar toy balloons encased in ice!

Darned kids probably didn't get a weather briefing before launch.
