History

Historical Context

The Great Blizzard of 1978, which struck from January 25 to 27, brought over 14 inches of snow to Cincinnati, causing widespread disruption and prompting emergency responses. With record low atmospheric pressure and severe conditions, the storm led to the first-ever shutdown of the Ohio Turnpike.
