“The Great Arctic Outbreak: The Blizzard of 1899"


The Great Arctic Outbreak: The Blizzard of 1899,"

The defunct Democratic Advocate published an article about the storm on Feb. 18, 1899: "Heavy Snow Storm -- Railroads and Public Roads Blockaded -- Westminster Cut Off from Outside Communication -- Deepest Snow for Many Years."

DAYHOFF: In the 1800s, residents endured a real storm of the century http://tinyurl.com/ycw27sr #history #writing

http://www.explorecarroll.com/ EAGLE ARCHIVE By Kevin Dayhoff Posted http://www.explorecarroll.com/community/4006/dayhoff/ 2/28/10

Everyone has a story of driving a car in the middle of a snowstorm, but can you imagine attempting to negotiate the snow in horse and buggy days?

"The first round occurred on Feb. 5 through (Feb.) 8 with over 1 foot of accumulation."

The second wallop happened when "a ferocious four-day storm that began on Saturday, Feb. 11 and continued through Tuesday morning, Feb. 14. ...

"Approximately 25 inches of snow fell on top of the prior foot of snow in the 1899 storm to reach a total accumulation of over 3 feet. The blustery northwest wind pushed the snow into drifts of 8 to 12 feet," according to both local historian Joe Getty and the newspaper account.

To add to the misery, temperatures were in the record-setting sub-zero range; from 12 below zero on Feb. 9; then 20 below zero on Feb. 10, and "from 14 to 27 below" zero on Feb. 11.

The photograph is from the family papers of Caroline Babylon and Kevin Dayhoff ©. Depicted is a scene from the February 14, 1899 blizzard. The view is of Main Street, looking west over the railroad tracks at the intersection of Main Street and Liberty Street. Oral history indicates that the individuals in the photo include family member Frank Thomas Babylon. [18990214 Main St during Blizzardc]

Bush ‘Miss Me Yet?’

Billboard NPR Most E-mailed Stories

The Two-Way
There is a billboard along I-35 near Wyoming, Minn., with a huge photo of former president George W. Bush and this question: "Miss Me Yet?" Now, the push is on to find out who paid to have it put up.
An Eyewitness Account »

Your Health
It starts sometime during our 50s and 60s: that belly bulge, those "extra" pounds we just can't seem to shed. Part of it is simply the biology of our bodies. Our muscles literally shrink as we age, and that means more calories turn into fat — and it's a lot harder to exercise it off. But the good news is that working out still helps.
Your Health
Getting fit can seem a daunting task, but increasingly, research is finding that small changes can make a big difference. Something as simple as brisk walking can markedly improve fitness — and lifespan. One key to optimizing your workout is getting your heart rate in the target zone.
Krulwich On Science
Each New Year's, Christmas and birthday seems to come round faster every year. But why is it that we feel time goes by faster as we get older? Scientists dissect one of life's intriguing mysteries.
Video: Time Flying By For Homer Simpson »
Mental Health
Researchers have referred to Asperger's as high-functioning autism for years, but it's never been listed officially as a form of autism by the American Psychiatric Association. But an updated edition of a mental health disorder guide now says Asperger's really is a form of autism — and some of those with Asperger's are objecting.
Business
A nonprofit in Chicago is training and hiring people with Asperger's syndrome to test computer software. Aspiritech says this work is a good match for high-functioning autistic people because it leverages their skills such as lack of boredom with repetitive tasks and talent for work precision.
Non-Fiction
Once asked to write a full story in six words, legend has it that novelist Ernest Hemingway responded: "For Sale: baby shoes, never worn." In this spirit, Smith Magazine invited writers "famous and obscure" to distill their own life stories into a single sentence. It All Changed in an Instant is the fourth collection of six-word memoirs from the magazine.

Radiolab
Floating through space right now is a golden record carrying sounds of Earth: a mother's first words to her baby, the sound of a kiss, and music from all over the world. Ann Druyan helped to create the NASA project as a guide to Earth for aliens. And like any good mix tape — interstellar or not — it led to the man of her dreams.

Seeking Justice For Campus Rapes
Despite federal laws created to hold colleges accountable, schools almost never expel men found responsible for rape. Victims who do report the crime are left with few options, and have been unable to count on help from the government's oversight agency. http://n.npr.org/NPRI/jN81055234_333050_333024_Z.htm
