Ice Storm Image Gallery
This gallery is a collection of images from the ice storm that struck Norman, OK on December 9-10, 2007. The ice was formed by freezing rain. Roadways were very icy, which caused accidents. The storm caused damage to trees and power lines. Over a million people lost electrical power. Several of the images were taken at the campus of the University of Oklahoma.
