STORM PHOTOS
The following pictures were taken with my grandparents' camcorder around my hometown of Ewing, New Jersey during the snowstorm.  The left column was taken at 6 AM, while the right column was taken at 8 AM.  This storm started at 4 AM and was more or less over by 1 PM.  At 6 AM there was about 3 inches of snow, and by 8AM there was 6 inches.  By the time the storm was over, 13 inches had fallen, making it the largest snowstorm since the Blizzard of '96 (31 inches).
