Ice encases sections of Oklahoma in the state's most recent ice and snowstorm

|
It's been quite a winter in Oklahoma. The latest ice and snow storm to hit that region produced the scenes you see here in just the past week---scenes photographically captured by Tim Koska and forwarded to us by our hard-working former intern Eric Szos, who now works as a meteorologist for Cherry Logistics Corporation in North Aurora. So bad was the icing in Oklahoma during the storm that law enforcement officials reported 200 or more power poles snapped in some locations producing power outages. MANY THANKS ERIC for sharing these with us---and please extend out thanks to Tim Koska for some amazing photos!
