The St. Valentine's Day 2007 Blizzard

Special VPR News Coverage

On Valentine's Day, 2007 Vermont was hit with one of the 10 biggest snowfall's on record. Up to 36 inches fell in various parts of the state, shutting down roads, schools, offices and creating difficult situations for the agricultural community as barns collapsed and milk production was halted.

VPR covered the storm as it unfolded and in the days that followed as cleanup crews plowed roads and utilities worked to restore power.
