 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 1912 Residents of Kansas City began to dig out from a storm
            produced 25 inches of snow in 24 hours.  The snowfall
            total was nearly twice that of any other storm of
            modern record in Kansas City before or since that time.
            A record 40 inches of snow fell during the month of
            March that year, and the total for the winter season of
            67 inches was also a record.  By late February of that
            year Kansas City had received just six inches of snow.
            Olathe KS received 37 inches of snow in the snowstorm,
            establishing a single storm record for the state of
            Kansas.  (23rd-24th)
    In 1987 A winter-like storm in the central U.S. produced
            blizzard conditions from South Dakota to western
            Kansas.  Snowfall totals ranged up to 24 inches at
            Neligh NE, with 19 inches at Winner SD.  Winds gusting
            to 60 mph created twelve foot snow drifts in Nebraska
            stranding thousands on the highways.
    In 1988 Thunderstorms developing along a cold front produced
            severe weather from Minnesota to northeastern Texas.
            The thunderstorms spawned ten tornadoes, including one
            which injured five persons near Raymondville MO.
    In 1989 Low pressure off the coast of Virginia brought heavy
            rain to the Middle Atlantic Coast States, and heavy
            snow to the Northern Appalachians.  Cape Hatteras NC
            was soaked with 5.20 inches of rain in 24 hours, and
            snowfall totals in Vermont ranged up to 12 inches.
            Winds gusted to 52 mph at New York City.
    In 1990 The storm system which produced heavy snow in the Lower
            Missouri Valley the previous day, spread heavy snow
            across parts of the Upper Ohio Valley and the Middle
            Atlantic Coast Region.  Snowfall totals of 2.2 inches
            at Philadelphia PA and 2.4 inches at Atlantic City NJ
            were records for the date.  Up to six inches of snow
            blanketed southern Ohio.  In the Middle Atlantic Coast
            Region, snow coated the blossoms of cherry trees which
            had bloomed in 80 degree weather the previous week.
