Property damaging? Yes, they can do things like pull off gutters, do
damage when they fall on things...we were a little worried it would
break off at the top and fall through a window. Then there's damage
from the ice itself...it managed to cleanly remove a good amount of
paint by creeping under it and expanding, and it can pry its way into
the house and form leaks.
Dangerous? Yep...that one was about 8-10 inches (about 20-25 cm)
across at the top, and remained thick for most of its length...that's
a lot of water, very heavy, and most of it elevated above head level.
We eventually broke it off ourselves, to make sure it didn't do
anything.
