Storm of the Century

"Storm of the Century" is an intense National Geographic documentary that chronicles the terrifying reality of the historic 1993 Superstorm (also known as the "Blizzard of '93"). Stretching over 1,200 miles from the Gulf Coast of Florida all the way to Canada, this catastrophic weather system combined tornadoes, violent thunderstorms, and record-breaking snowfall in one massive blow. The program features compelling eyewitness accounts, dramatic rescue stories, and real footage of families fighting to survive against heavy sub-zero winds and devastating 12-foot storm surges. It offers an educational and sobering look at the unpredictable fury of Mother Nature and how it paralyzed an entire nation.
