You'd hear a lot of cracks and snapping before a loud THUD is heard from large branches breaking off and hitting the ground. Hard to tell if it was gonna be a branch or a large tree.
Yeah ice is serious, builds up on powerlines and trees, freezes pipes, cracks open ceilings and causes accidents. Back in 2015 we had a major amount of snow and freezing rain, some big buildings in town like this old sports arena had giant icicles on them overhanging sidewalks, bigger than me, and when it all started to thaw that spring the ceiling of where I was living literally cracked open in multiple places and started to leak heavily. Eventually had to find a new places to live over it.
