Hi Everyone,

Check out these videos on the Blizzard of 1978.  These are some very old ones. The first one summarizes this great event.  The second video has the coverage of the event.  In this one, check out how they did the weather back in that time.  No chromakey here.  They actually wrote on the maps.  How about those graphics they used.  Yep, TV and weather graphics, technology has come a long way.

Description: This Ch. 8 footage is from January 10, 1977. One of the clues is that January 26, 1978 (tthe day of the 1978 blizzard) was a Thursday. During Dick Goddard’s forecast in the above video, it says the next day is Tuesday.
