Radial/Line Ice Forecast GraphicThis graphic shows the expected radial or line ice forecast. Radial or line ice is the amount of ice that accumulates on a branch or powerline. If 1" accumulates on the top of a branch and 1/2" accumulates on the bottom, averaging the two gives 3/4" radial/line ice. This amount is the elevated flat surface ice accumulation multiplied by 0.394. NWS's traditional ice accumulation forecast is elevated flat surface, not the radial/line ice you see here.
