This is the first of four clips of a broadcast from the 1967 Chicago blizzard. The broadcast came from WCGO and WTAS studios in Chicago Heights Illinois and surrounding south suburban Chicago areas. The audio was originally recorded on a reel-to-reel by a Crete resident. The reel and recorder were later auctioned off when the resident had passed on and we have been lucky to obtain it. The video was done with stills of roughly half actual pictures from that blizzard (Chicago Tribune's "Big Snow", January, 1967) and half random pictures not necessarily from the blizzard, but there for filler, hopefully to make this all so not boring. Sorry if the video is boring, but at least the audio portion is genuinely from that time. It may not all completely jive together, but we tried our best for it to. Please enjoy!
