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.
