Freezing rain paralyzes Midwest and West. state offices closed
A widespread ice storm from Oklahoma to the Ohio Valley led Indiana Governor Bowen to close the Statehouse and State Office Building in Indianapolis while lawmakers met. Public schools and colleges were shut, buses halted, and heavy traffic blocked at airports. The Red Cross opened two shelters as power failures left many without heat. Two truckers were killed in Missouri accidents and two died on Oklahoma roads. Weather caused multiple crashes across the nation, with snow in California and Nevada, and record snowfall in Colorado and the Sierra.
