Q4 oo fovot on 'Sticking It Out' With Old Man Winter Snow continuing tonight and through tomorrow with an additional eight inches. This was not an unusual weather forecast for the Owensboro area in early January. School was closed a total of 13 days due to the bad weather and forced stu- dents to makeup days during the annual spring vacation time in April. Snow was on the ground for 63 con- secutive days. A total of 41 inches of snow fell during the year. The worst snowstorm in 60 years hit Owensboro on I an. 18 and brought the city to a standstill. In a 24-hour period, 14 inches of snow fell in Owensboro, which was the largest snowfall in the city since the 15-inch snow in 1918. The big snow caused cars to get stranded in snow drifts, and roofs on houses and porches were caving in be- cause of the heavy snow. Activity in the Owensboro area was limited in January and early February. The main action was the shoveling of snow, or stranded motorists attempting to escape the snow drifts. School activi- ties were cancelled and many students were looking forward to the opening of school, for the first time. - Things ,were beginning to become normal again when a real blizzard hit the Owensboro area Jan. 25. Kentucky was declared in a State of Emergency and traffic was not allowed to travel on the Owensboro .roads. It was the first time in many years that snow caused taxis to turn off their' engines. The storm was considered a blizzard be- cause winds blew up to 45 MPH and snow drifted up to five feet. The blizzard of '78 will continue to be a much-discussed topic and one that OHS students will relate to their chil- dren . .. and grandchildren. - By Scot Gaither 3 fBl1zzard of '78 sv A snowsled built for two? A group of OHS students laugh at the antics of fellow snow- lovers Nancy Hanberry and Anna Kay Aus- tin as the pair slip-slide their way down a snow-covered hill at Bon Harbor. Sometimes the trip downhill can be a little scary as Sophomore Martha .Raley illus- trates. Screams of pain and squeals of excite- ment could both be heard on the snowy slopes of Owensboro during the winter bliz- zard. '39
