STORM PHOTOS
The following pictures were taken with my grandmother's camcorder around my hometown of Ewing, New Jersey at various times on January 14 and January 15, 1999.  1.0 inch of frozen precipitation accumulated by the end of the storm, including 1/2 inch of sleet and 1/2 inch of glaze from freezing rain.

The first set below was taken around 4 PM EST January 14, 1999 while sleet was falling.
