http://www.omaha.com/article/20091212/NEWS01/712129827/1009/news01Short version: this is an account of the work done by the maintenance crews at Omaha's Eppley Airfield during this past week's snow. It's been 20 years since Eppley closed for weather-related reasons, and the streak is alive -- the airport was open throughout the entire storm.
