Finite snow days, National Guard, and toxic gases

Life is starting to get back to normal for some, but not nearly for all.

Power restoration is still slow-going in some communities. One in five homes in Nashville is still in the dark and cold. And in some parts of town, work has hardly begun. This hour, we’re going to get an update about the arrival of the National Guard, hear about schools running out of snow days, and learn the warning signs about carbon monoxide poisoning. Plus we’ll visit Brown’s Diner where they’re emptying the freezer before it goes bad — and we remember the ice storm of 1994. It’s another recovery show.

After the live show ends, tune into the latest Mayor’s News Conference.

Guests: 

  • Rep. Caleb Hemmer (D), Tennessee House Representative, District 59
  • Camellia Burris, WPLN Education Reporter
  • John Isbell, Sumner County Mayor
  • Rose Gilbert, WPLN General Assignment Reporter
  • Nadine Moore, Birria Babe Owner
  • Justin Barney, WPLN Music Reporter
  • Dr. Rebecca Bruccoleri, Medical Director of Tennessee Poison Center, Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt
