On January 20–22, the governors of eleven states and the mayor of Washington, D.C. declared a state of emergency in anticipation of significant snowfall and blizzard conditions. Approximately 103 million people were affected by the storm, with 33 million people under blizzard warnings. More than 13,000 flights were cancelled in relation to the storm, with effects rippling internationally. Thousands of National Guardsmen were placed on standby and states deployed millions of gallons of brine and thousands of tons of road salt to lessen the storm's effect on roadways. A travel ban was instituted for New York City and Newark, New Jersey for January 23–24. The storm was given various unofficial names, including Winter Storm Jonas and Snowzilla. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3411364/Monster-blizzard-bearing-eastern-US.html http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3414325/Winter-Storm-Jonas-clean-begins-East-Coast-struggles-recover-storm-generation-dumps-40-inches-snow-areas-killing-19-people-turning-New-York-City-ghost-town.html Sunset approaches the end of Grand Haven Pier in St Joseph, Michigan earlier this week after a winter storm effected the area.
