ABSTRACT

Great Blizzard, 1888 Stage 1 of the Disaster You are a director of health and human services. It is based on good authority that the northeastern region of the United States is going to have some extremely cold weather. March 11 should be a fairly nice day in most parts of the country; however, you are coiled up in a blanket looking outside your office window as snow is falling at a very alarming rate. The scene is the same in at least three other states and transportation is coming to a standstill (Douglas, 2005).
