Christmas 2004 snowstorm
The Miami Valley was hit with 11.5 inches of snow on Dec. 22, 2004, setting off days of health risks, daily life interruptions and holiday travel frustrations. Not letting up, Mother Nature dropped another 4.9 inches on Dec. 23. Look back on the Dayton Daily News coverage of those unusual (yet aesthetically beautiful) days in these archive pages.
