Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1948-49, Nebraska experienced a winter like never before. Brutal cold, unbearable winds and record snowfall made roads impassable and life difficult for locals. Farmers and ranchers struggled with hunger due to a dwindling supply of coal and food. The governor requested federal aid, and the U.S. Air Force dropped bales of hay into pastures for animals. Many locals perished in the weather, and icy roads forced the state to redesign and rebuild highways. Author Barry Seegebarth details the tragedy and courage of the Nebraska winter of 1948.

Book excerpt: The blizzards that devastated the West eventually ended when every farmer and rancher in need of bulldozer crews had received the required assistance. Life began to return to normal for the people who experienced the extreme hardships evident throughout that infamous winter, but the effects remained in the consciousness of the leaders who had to react to those challenges. One reason the blizzards of 1949 devastated the West was because state and federal governments had no methodical approach to deal with natural disasters. They could not offer an organized response to national emergencies in which local, county, and state governments required assistance to save livestock and human residents. After these blizzards, authorities began to implement changes to disaster response and fundamental changes appeared in the following decades.Citizens, soldiers, and federal contractors worked to end the ordeal of the blizzards, quickly opening routes throughout the region. State and federal road crews liberated many farmers and ranchers, who quickly went to grocery stores for the first time in weeks or months to restock their food shelves. Newspapers across the country reported when portions of the affected states were finally free to leave their isolated homes. The folks who witnessed the blizzards of 1949 still remember them, and newspapers routinely commemorate the event on relevant anniversaries. In the end, however, the importance of the blizzard conditions as examined here are not the misery they inflicted on the populace, not the stories of heroism or heartbreak, but the snapshot in time the affair provides the reader today.

Download or read book Great Plains Weather written by Kenneth F. Dewey and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2019-05-01 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The weather of the Great Plains is extreme and highly variable, from floods to droughts, blizzards to tornadoes. In Great Plains Weather Kenneth F. Dewey explains what makes this region's climate unique by presenting a historical climatology of extreme weather events. Beginning with tornadoes--perhaps the most formidable plains weather phenomena--he describes the climatology of these storms and discusses memorable tornadoes of the plains. As one of the storm chasers who travels the Great Plains in the spring and summer tracking severe weather, Dewey also shares some of his experiences on the road. Dewey then goes on to discuss famous blizzards, from the "School Children's Storm" of 1888 to more recent storms, along with droughts and floods. Precipitation, or the lack thereof, has long determined human activity in the region; exacerbated by the vagaries of climate change, it continues to have a significant economic and cultural impact on the people of the plains. Dewey's absorbing narrative is complemented by images of tornadoes, snowstorms, and flash floods that he amassed in forty years of climatological research.
