THE GREAT APPALACHAIN STORM IN 1950
The so-called “storm of the century” hit the eastern part of the
United States, killing hundreds and causing millions of dollars
in damages, on November 25, 1950.
Also known as the “Appalachian Storm,” it dumped record
amounts of snow in parts of the Appalachian Mountains.
Forming over North Carolina just before Thanksgiving, the
storm quickly moved north, striking western Pennsylvania,
eastern Ohio and West Virginia.
These areas were blanketed with several feet of snow for
several days and travel was impossible for nearly a week
in some places.
