    In 1921 A cloudburst near Pikes Peak CO killed 120 people.
            Pueblo CO was flooded by a twenty-five foot crest of the
            Arkansas River, killing 70 persons.  Fourteen inches of
            rain was reported at Boggs Flat, where a hard surface
            road through nearly level country was washed out to a
            depth of seven feet.
    In 1959 Thunderstorms in northwestern Kansas produced up to
            eighteen inches of hail near Salden during the early
            evening.  Crops were completely destroyed, and total
            damage from the storm was about half a million dollars.
            Hail fell for a record eighty-five minutes.  The temp-
            erature dropped from near 80 degrees prior to the storm
            to 38 degrees at the height of the storm.
    In 1968 For the first time in June since 1892, not a single clear
            day was observed in Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan for the month.
    In 1987 Six days of flooding in South Texas culminated with five
            to six inch rains from Bexar County to Bandera County,
            and five to nine inches rains in Gonzalez and Wilson
            Counties.  Total crop damage was estimated at 500 million
            dollars.
    In 1988 Early morning thunderstorms in southern Texas produced
            wind gusts to 86 mph at Port Isabel, and wind gusts to 83
            mph at South Padre Island.  Unseasonably hot weather
            prevailed from the Southern Plateau Region to the
            Northern High Plains.  Fourteen cities reported record
            high temperatures for the date.
    In 1989 Thunderstorms developing over the Southern Plains Region
            during the afternoon hours produced severe weather into
            the night.  Thunderstorms spawned eleven tornadoes, and
            there were 169 reports of large hail and damaging winds.
            Thunderstorm winds gusted to 80 mph at Newcastle Ok and
            Wilson OK.  Softball size hail was reported at Monahans
            TX, Childress TX and Groesbeck TX.  Monahans TX reported
            six million dollars damage.  Five inches of rain deluged
            Geronimo OK.
    In 2012 A severe thunderstorm dropped 4 1/2 inch diameter hail
            at Smithville, Arkansas (northeast Arkansas).
