    Weather data after 1990 is PARTIAL. For more current

    In 1873 A blizzard raged across the Great Plains.  Many pioneers,
            unprepared for the cold and snow, perished in southwest
            Minnesota and northwestern Iowa.
    In 1971 The temperature at Hawley Lake, located southeast of McNary
            AZ, plunged to 40 degrees below zero to establish a state
            record.
    In 1987 A storm in the southwestern U.S. produced 30 inches of snow
            north of Zion National Park in southern Utah, with 18 inches
            reported at Cedar Canyon UT.
    In 1988 A winter storm in the southeastern U.S. produced 27 inches
            of snow in the Bad Creek area of South Carolina, and claimed
            the lives of two million chickens in Alabama.
    In 1989 A tornado in southern Illinois obliterated half the community
            of Allendale, injuring fifty perons and causing more than
            five million dollars damage, while thunderstorm winds gusting
            higher than 100 mph caused ten million dollars damage at
            Franklin KY. Twenty-five cities, from the Gulf coast to
            Michigan, reported record high temperatures for the date.
    In 1990 A rapidly intensifying low pressure system and a vigorous
            cold front brought heavy rain and high winds to the Pacific
            Northwest. Two to five inch rains soaked western Washington
            and western Oregon, and winds gusting above 70 mph caused
            extensive damage. Wind gusts on Rattlesnake Ridge in
            Washington State reached 130 mph.
