Blizzard of 2013 in Claude, Texas

Claude, a little town in the Texas Panhandle is where I grew up.  It recently got 72 inches of snow!  Well, maybe it only drifted that high because of 70 mile-per-hour winds!  But this was nothing compared to the blizzard of 1956, when I could walk up and over my house on the drifts—true story!!  Incidentally, when I say that Claude was small....it had a population of 820 when I graduated from high school in 1959, with a whopping 26 in my senior class!!Claude Texas Blizzard 2013
