weather was brutal in 1970’s

Growing up in upstate NY actually had FROST IN JULY in some parts of the state in early 1970’s

Remember nothing but blizzards for winter 1977

Buffalo get buried under more that 30 feet of snow that year

Those were the days.

BTW, nobody really remembers much, but the next year was almost as bad with blizzards.

It was because of the widespread panic whenever the word *blizzard* was used that the NWS redefined the criteria for something qualifying as a blizzard.

Weather, clothes, furniture, décor, cars, politicians, gas prices, economy, ... was there anything that was not brutal in the 1970s?
