Next time the weather is getting you down, think back to the time New York City was almost pulverized by the relentless Great White Hurricane. Join us as we tell the story of a particularly bad winter day in 1888 NYC. Aristotle, polar fronts, the Greely Expedition, and a new record for number of sidebars in a single episode.
