    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 1909 Though fair weather was forecast, President Taft was
            inaugurated amidst a furious storm.  About ten inches
            of wet snow disrupted travel and communications.  The
            storm drew much criticism against the U.S. Weather
            Bureau.
    In 1953 Snow was reported on the island of Oahu in Hawaii.
    In 1966 A severe blizzard raged across Minnesota and North
            Dakota.  The blizzard lasted four days producing up to
            35 inches of snow, and wind gusting to 100 mph produced
            snow drifts 30 to 40 feet high.  Bismarck ND reported
            zero visibility for 11 hours.  Traffic was paralyzed
            for three days.  (2nd-5th)
    In 1987 Rain and high winds prevailed in the northwestern U.S.
            A wind gust to 69 mph at Klamath Falls OR was their
            highest in 25 years, and winds at the Ashland Ranger
            Station in the Siskiyou Mountains of northern
            California reached 85 mph.
    In 1988 Snow and freezing rain made travel hazardous in Ohio
            and Indiana.  A six car pile-up resulted near Columbus
            OH, with seven injuries reported.  Up to two inches of
            ice glazed central Indiana.  Up to ten inches of snow
            blanketed northern Ohio.
    In 1989 Thunderstorms produced severe weather in the Lower
            Mississippi Valley.  An (F-3) tornado injured five
            persons near Brownsville MS, and killed seven cows and
            two hogs in one pasture.  Thunderstorm winds gusted to
            90 mph at Canton MS.
    In 1990 A Pacific cold front working its way across the western
            U.S. produced heavy snow over parts of Idaho, Nevada
            and Utah.  Up to 11 inches of snow blanketed the
            valleys of northwest Utah, while 12 to 25 inches fell
            across the mountains of northern Utah.  Up to 6 inches
            of snow blanketed the valleys of east central Nevada,
            while more than a foot of snow was reported in the
            high elevations.  In Idaho, 6 to 8 inches of snow was
            reported around Aberdeen and American Falls.
