 This is the 105th day of the year, there are 260 days left.

 On this day...
    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 1921 Two mile high Silver Lake CO received 76 inches of snow in
            24 hours, the heaviest 24 hour total of record for North
            America. The storm left a total of 87 inches in 27 1/2 hours.
            A tornado outbreak that started in Texas swept into central
            Arkansas...with 35 fatalities in Arkansas.
    In 1927 New Orleans LA was drenched with 14.01 inches of rain,
            which established a 24 hour rainfall record for the state.
    In 1949 A hailstone five inches by five and a half inches in size,
            and weighing four pounds, was measured at Troy NY.
    In 1958 A tornado 300 yards in width skipped along a five mile path
            near Frostproof FL.  A 2500 gallon water tank was found one
            mile from its original position (it is not known how much
            water was in the tank at the time).
    In 1987 Thunderstorms developing along a cold front produced severe
            weather in the Southern Atlantic Coast Region.  A tornado
            killed one person and injured seven others near Mount Dora
            FL.  Drifts of hail up to two feet deep were reported in
            Davidson and Rowan counties in North Carolina.  Myrtle Beach
            SC was deluged with seven inches of rain in three hours.
    In 1988 Death Valley CA was soaked with 1.53 inches of rain in
            24 hours. Snow fell in the mountains of southern California.
    In 1989 Showers and thunderstorms soaked the eastern U.S. with heavy
            rain, pushing the rainfall total for the month at Cape
            Hatteras NC past their previous April record of 7.10 inches.
    In 1990 Thunderstorms developing along a stationary front produced
            severe weather from west central Texas to west central
            Arkansas during the late afternoon and evening. Thunderstorms
            spawned a tornado which caused more than half a million
             dollars damage at Fort Stockton TX, produced wind gusts to
            65 mph at Dennison TX, produced baseball size hail at
            Silo OK and near Capps Corner TX, and drenched southeastern
            Oklahoma with up to 4 inches of rain in two hours.
