WHILE EXECUTING A VOR APPROACH AND CIRCLING TO LAND, THE AIRCRAFT COLLIDED WITH TREES AND A FENCE, THEN IMPACTED ON A ROADWAY SHORT OF THE RUNWAY. THE PILOT HAD OBTAINED A FULL WEATHER BRIEFING PRIOR TO HIS DEPARTURE. THE WEATHER BRIEFING INCLUDED SIGMET GOLF 1 ADVISING OF MODERATE, OCCASIONALLY SEVERE ICING CONDITIONS AND NUMEROUS PILOT REPORTS OF ICING ALONG HIS ROUTE OF FLIGHT. WITNESSES REPORTED THAT THEY OBSERVED ICE ON THE LEADING EDGE OF THE WINGS, AND PIECES OF ICE ON THE GROUND AROUND THE AIRCRAFT, AND THE PILOT REPORTED THAT HE ACCUMULATED APPROXIMATELY 3/8' ICE DURING THE DESCENT TO THE AIRPORT. THE PILOT ALSO STATED THAT HE ENCOUNTERED WIND GUSTS/WINDSHEAR ON FINAL APPROACH.
