The Columbus Day Storm of 1962 was a freak of nature, a weather outlier with deadly winds topping one hundred miles per hour. The storm killed dozens, injured hundreds, damaged more than fifty thousand homes, and leveled enough timber to build one million homes. This October marks the sixtieth anniversary of the storm. Join us as awarding-winning author John Dodge takes us through the whirlwind.
