Volunteers from 4 wheel drive groups aided by Aiken County Civil Defense transported medical personnel and stranded motorists during icy conditions Tuesday night and Wednesday. About 10 to 15 people joined the effort, praised by Civil Defense Director Bobby Mauney for their cooperation.
Aiken County endured historic winter events from 1973 to 1980 with heavy snow and ice. Records show 14 to 15 inches in 1973 halting I-20 traffic and straining shelters, plus 11 inches in 1914 as a prior peak. The 1979 storms paralyzed power lines and transport, while 1980 marked the last snowfall noted.
