A Weather Documentary Narrator on the Deadliest Blizzard in History
In February 1972, a blizzard swept across Iran that would become the deadliest in recorded history. Over the course of a week, up to 10 metres of snow buried entire villages in the Alborz and Zagros mountain ranges. An estimated 4,000 people died. Some villages were never found again.
Weather disaster documentaries require a narrator who can hold the scale of the catastrophe alongside the human stories within it. The best weather narration makes the meteorological forces feel real by connecting them to the people caught inside them.
