Do the past 8 years count? Oh wait, I guess not. That was unnatural.
Edited to add: I was in the New England blizzard of '78 too. We lost power for about a week. No school, streets shut down. Only cops and people like doctors were allowed on the road. It was the one and only time I hitchhiked. Towards the end of the week, a neighborhood friend and I were bored to tears, so we walked a couple miles to a convenience store. It was open, so we bought some candy or something like that, but then we didn't want to walk back. So my friend talked me into hitchhiking. A doctor picked us up. He had a bunch of X-rays in the back seat that we had to stack into a pile so we wouldn't bend them!
