Blizzard of 2016: 6 Uplifting Scenes That Will Warm Your Heart

By January 25, 2016No Comments

If you live in the Eastern U.S., you’re probably still digging out from the record-breaking snowfall we experienced this weekend. With 2 to 3 feet of snow dumped from Tennessee to New York, it was one for the record books: schools were closed, roads were shut down and many people lost power.

Among the whiteouts and cabin fever, though, were a few shining examples that even the nastiest storm can’t dampen the power of a positive attitude. If your wintry mood could use a warm-up, these should help.
