Great Southeastern Snowstorm of 1973 [Ep. 440]

It's been fifty years since a snowstorm brought upwards of two feet of snow to the Carolinas on Feb. 9, 1973. And this wasn't just winter weather in the mountains: Some of the highest accumulations came across the sand hills and coastal plains of both North Carolina and South Carolina. James Brierton talks with Melissa Griffin, the assistant state climatologist for South Carolina, and Frank Strait, a Carolina Weather Group panelist who also works with Griffin as the severe weather liaison for the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources.
