With the recent flooding we've experienced in our area, it reminds me when KIMA had their 'Flood of '96' coverage. If I remember correctly, conditions then were similar to now.
I was browsing for something completely different and found something fantastic! Someone has uploaded several local TV news segments from the early to mid-'90s. Why? I have no idea, but I'm loving seeing the local interviews from various places and with some people I actually recognize.
