I am originally from philly. lived thru 1977 or 1978 blizzard . 8 foot snow drifts. EL and subways shut down. I got it but many AREWoefully unprepared and too many expect gov to parachute in on hour two.
I remember that winter and the one before. There were three storms. Pittsburgh set record temps in January at -20 and did not get back above freezing until the mid March (thaw). I was a student at Pitt and remember walking back and forth from south Oakland. That was just one of the clues that got me thinking about preparedness.

I went to CMU. I remember sitting in physics, bundled up, trying to take notes with gloves on. Like the class wasn’t challenging enough and it was “Physics for Humanities Majors.”
