Record snowfall

Staff Photographers from The Oklahoman headed out into the snowstorms over the weekend to look for pictures. On Christmas eve, Jim Beckel got stuck at the airport, Paul Southerland went to El Reno and was stuck in the snow out there for hours.  Here’s a few of the many images that were sent in over the weekend.

Jim Beckle,
I am the owner of Santiago Sports & Classics, 501 E Britton Road. I loved your picture of Britton Road between Broadway Ext and Kelley, on page 4A. Saturday the 14th. I was wondering if you could email me a copy of that picture? I was wanting to forward it to my relatives in Puerto Rico. I don’t believe that they have ever seen anything quite like that, especially since that they know that my business is located on Britton Road.
Thanks in advance.
Rocky Santiago
