Thirty Years Ago (1990)
Snow on Friday, Dec. 21, ensured a white Christmas, but the bitterly cold temperatures through the week threatened holiday travel plans and caused many cars not to start. High temperatures were below zero, with lows near 20 below. BP Schools closed at 1:15 p.m. Friday due to the threatening weather. Highs on Saturday were near 10 below zero and by Sunday morning, temperatures dropped to 25 below. Wind chill factors throughout the week made traveling dangerous. Towing services and service stations were swamped with calls for assistance starting cars due to the bitter cold.
