Question about AM and critical hours, does snow count?

During a snowstorm back in about 1995, I could listen, on my pocket transistor radio, to 620 KGW, 1080 KWJJ and 1190 KEX from Portland, OR from my home in Lewiston, ID (about 370 miles). This was in the late morning hours, BTW. No skip. The storm was extant the entire distance. |
