Worst snow storm you've experienced?

[LogDog75]

60. In England in the mid-80s

I was in medical supply in our medical clinic and we had a patient who came in about 3 minutes before the clinic closed complaining of a migraine. Or pharmacy was out of the medication the patient needed so we RAF Lakenheath to see if they had any they could spare. They did and we sent on of our airmen there, about 45 minutes away, to pick it up. I usually worked late so I was going to stay until he came back. After about three hours, he hadn't returned. We called RAF Lakenheath and they said he had picked up the medication and left. My OIC and I waited another 30 minutes before I decided I would drive the same route and look for him. It was snowing hard; very hard when I left and the snow and wind was to by back. I made it to RAF Lakenheath and he wasn't there. I came back the same route and was driving directly into the wind and snow. It was dark, visibility as 20 yards, the wind blowing hard, and I could only drive about 25 mph. I made it back around 9:30 pm and the airman still hadn't shown up. We called the Security Police and asked them to check with other bases as well as the local police. The next morning, around 7 am, we get a call saying the airman was at another AF base where the Security Police had him stay there until morning. Needless to say, we didn't send him to RAF Lakenheath after that.
