February 23, 1941. Storms

Today In Wyoming's History: February 231941  Blizzard conditions stalled traffic in the state.  This was, of course, in the pre 4x4 days.  Prior to World War Two 4x4 vehicles were almost unheard of and were limited to industrial vehicles. Almost every vehicle was a rear wheel drive 2x4.

On the same day Mussolini gave a speech admitting that Italy was experiencing "gray days", but states that such things happen and all wars and promising better days ahead as Italy marched towards a promised fascist victory.

The Germans continued their round up of Amsterdam's Jewish population.

And plutonium was discovered.
