28 years later: Remembering the Blizzard of 93

Whether you lived it or have just heard the stories, we're turning back the clock to remember the Blizzard of 1993, when East Tennessee was nearly paralyzed by more than a foot of snow!

If you lived in East Tennessee in 1993, you have your own stories to tell. If you didn't, well you've probably heard about it!

On March 12, 1993, snow started falling. And falling. When it was finally done, most folks in our area had well over a foot of snow on the ground. That's more snow than many of them had ever seen, and probably will ever see again in their backyard!
