    Weather data after 1990 is PARTIAL. For more current

    website at www.ncdc.noaa.gov
    In 1816 The temperature reached 92 degrees at Salem MA during an
            early heat wave, but then plunged 49 degrees in 24 hours
            to commence the famous "year without a summer".
    In 1894 One of the greatest floods in U.S. history occurred as
            the Williamette River overflowed to inundate half of the
            business district of Portland OR.
    In 1975 A tornado, reportedly spinning backwards (clockwise), was
            sighted near Alva OK.
    In 1977 Severe thunderstorms with large hail and winds to 100 mph
            caused one million dollars damage around Norfolk VA.  A
            forty-two foot fishing boat capsized near the Chesapeake
            Bay Bridge Tunnel drowning 13 of the 27 persons on board.
    In 1987 Thunderstorms in southern California produced one inch
            hail at Mount Pinos, and marble size hail at Palmdale.
            Thunderstorms in southeastern Arizona produced heavy rain
            leaving some washes under four feet of water.  Six cities
            in the north central U.S. reported record high
            temperatures for the date as readings soared into the
            upper 90s.
    In 1988 Seventeen cities in the north central U.S. reported
            record high temperatures for the date, including
            Williston ND with a reading of 104 degrees.  Thunder-
            storms in Florida produced wind gusts to 65 mph which
            damaged two mobile homes northwest of Melbourne injuring
            six people.
    In 1989 Thunderstorms developing during the late morning hours
            produced severe weather through the afternoon and night.
            Thunderstorms spawned 13 tornadoes, and there were 154
            reports of large hail and damaging winds.  A strong (F-3)
            tornado injured six persons at Lorenzo TX, and
            thunderstorm winds gusting to 100 mph killed one person
            at Glasscock City TX.  Softball size hail was reported at
            Lipscomb TX and Glen Cove TX.
    In 2014 A supercell thunderstorm near Pilger, NE produced two
            EF-4 tornadoes simultaneously. Another EF-4 tornado cut
            a swath through rural areas near Alpena, SD.
