I remember that night especially well as one of the worst storms I have ever witnessed. I was a shortwave listener at the time and I was worried that my ungrounded antenna which stretched 100 feet out my bedroom window would be struck by lightning!
The wind howled and that dreadful sound along with ice pellets striking my window put up a terrible din all night long. The next morning we learned the worst. All of Freeland, Michigan had been cordoned off in the search for the 49 souls who were aboard Capital Airlines Viscount flight 67. A schoolmate of mine lost his father in that crash.
