Nope, no special name that I am aware of. Other than “that bad storm in October that one year”

The storm itself wasn’t abnormally bad, it was the timing and sequence. It was very early so some deciduous trees still had leaves. The storm started with rain, then slush, then it all froze. So tree branches were overloaded with weight and tore down. Oak trees that had survived for a century were downed. Older neighborhoods and towns with power lines on poles instead of buried lines like newer communities would have now had pretty much all lines and poles torn down. Lineworkers from all over the country were brought in to help. I was too young to really follow at the time, but I’m told some of the delay was simply supply chain; getting enough new wires and poles there quickly enough to keep the crews supplied.
