■ howa where the
November sleet storm
wrecked telephone lines.
When the Storm Struck
On Sunday afternoon, die 10th of November, a drizzling fain
which had been falling in midwestern Nebraska began to freeze
and form ice on the telephone wires. About the same time,
other sleet storms had developed in parts of Iowa, Minnesota
and South Dakota and in some places there also was heavy snow.
The weight of the ice on the telephone wires, coupled
with falling temperatures and a strong wind, caused many
telephone lines to break, cutting off about 200 cities and
towns from telephone communication.
This Company and its subsidiaries, the Tri-State and
Dakota Central telephone companies, had more than 50 000
wire breaks and over 2,000 poles down in the territory in
dicated on the above map. The telephone property loss of
these companies was nearly $200,000. This brings to more
than $3,000,000 the amount it has cost this Company and its
two subsidiaries the last 10 years to repair property damaged
or destroyed by storms.
Restoration of telephone service interrupted by the No
vember storm was accomplished in the usual manner. Trained
telephone men were assembled in the affected areas as quickly
as possible and immediately started to work repairing tba
lines. In this storm, about 850 men were required. They con
tinued work in spite of cold weather and nearly impassable
highways in some localities until service was restored, practi
ci-.lly all of which was done in two or three days.
