Yesterday's Ice Storm

A storm dropped snow and freezing rain on New Jersey yesterday. It left bushes and trees covered in a thin coat of ice. One thing I found interesting about the ice was that its surface was not smooth, but instead had fissures and ripples running over it.



This dogwood branch is covered in ice, but you can still see the shape of its flower bud.

The azalea bushes, which still have some leaves, were also coated.
