    Weather data after 1990 is PARTIAL. For more current
    weather history, go to the National Climate Data Center
    website at www.ncdc.noaa.gov
    In 1806 A total eclipse of the sun was viewed from southern
            California to Massachusetts.
            The temperature soared to 124 degrees at Mecca climaxing
            the most destructive heat wave of record in California
            history.
    In 1944 A tornado in Sioux City IA traveled an odd course.
            It spun in one place for about twenty minutes, made a U-
            turn, traveled southeast for about three miles, then
            traveled south, east, north, and finally east again.
    In 1987 Temperatures soared above 100 degrees in the Upper
            Midwest, reaching 104 degrees at Lincoln NE.  Thunder-
            storms produced wind gusts to 96 mph at Valley City ND,
            and baseball size hail near Red Oak IA.
    In 1988 After a brief respite, hot weather returned to the
            Northern High Plains Region.  Late night thunderstorms in
            Montana produced wind gusts to 70 mph at Polson and north
            of Lake Seeley.
    In 1989 Daytime thunderstorms produced severe weather from
            northern Florida to the Middle Atlantic Coast.  The
            thunderstorms spawned eight tornadoes, and there were 138
            reports of large hail and damaging winds.  Thunderstorm
            winds gusting to 87 mph caused 20 million dollars damage
            at Columbia SC.  Strong thunderstorm winds killed one
            person at McLeansville NC.
    In 2014 A rare double tornado (two tornadoes side by side), blasted
            through Pilger, Nebraska, causing widespread damage. Severe
            storms extended into the Dakotas, Minnesota, and Iowa.
