Episode Narrative A powerful winter storm moved through central Indiana on 12-14 February 2007. Extremely heavy snow and blizzard conditions crippled much of the northern half of central Indiana for as much as several days, while southern portions of the area were affected by freezing rain.|The largest snow event of the season struck central Indiana on February 12th through the 14th. The snow began during the evening of February 12th, moving from the southwest to northeast across Central Indiana. The snow continued at Indianapolis for nearly 30 hours, and when it was all done, during the early morning hours of February 14th, Indianapolis had received 8.5 inches of snow. |Blowing and drifting of snow became problematic during the evening of February 13th and during the early morning hours of February 14th. Snow drifts caused the most problems in the areas that received the most snow, mainly north of Interstate 70. Many county highway departments were forced to pull their crews off the roads by extremely treacherous conditions, instead opting to wait the snow and wind out before venturing back out for a lengthy and difficult cleanup process.|The low pressure system that produced the storm tracked along and south of the Ohio River across Kentucky which is an ideal storm track for heavy snow in central Indiana. Snow amounts with the storm were heaviest along a Lafayette to Muncie line. Many cities along this line received over a foot of snow. The largest amount of snow was measured in Lafayette, where 17 inches was measured by meteorologists at a television station. This ranks a tie for the second largest snowfall over a three day period in Lafayette. The largest snowfall in Lafayette was 20.5 inches on December 19-20, 1929.
