Winds up to sixty miles per hour created drifts four to eight feet high, paralyzing travel, blocking railroads and streets, and suspending commerce for days. The storm toppled telegraph and electric lines, halted trains and streetcars, and caused extensive property losses estimated near or above twenty million dollars.
