 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 1804 A large tornado crossed six Georgia counties killing at
            least eleven persons near Augusta.
    In 1933 Pigeon River Bridge MN reported 28 inches of snow, which
            established the state 24 hour snowfall record.  (4th-5th)
    In 1973 Sandia Crest NM reported a snow depth of 95 inches, a record
            for the state of New Mexico.
    In 1983 Colorado was in the midst of a three day winter storm.
            Buckhorn Mountain, located west of Fort Collins, received
            64 inches of snow.
    In 1987 Rains of five to eight inches drenched eastern New York
            State, and ten persons were killed in a bridge collapse
            over Schoharie Creek.
    In 1988 Sunny and warm weather prevailed across the nation.
            Fort Smith AR reported a record high of 90 degrees.
    In 1989 Thunderstorms produced severe weather from the Lower
            Mississippi Valley to the Southern Appalachians.  The
            thunderstorms spawned seventeen tornadoes, including one
            which caused two million dollars damage at Baldwin AL.
            Thunderstorm winds gusted to 90 mph at Bremen GA.
    In 1990 A deep low pressure system in northern New York State
            brought heavy snow to parts of western and central New York
            during the day. The snowfall total of 5.8 inches at Buffalo
            was a record for the date, and 9.5 inches was reported at
            Rochester.  Snowfall totals ranged up to 11 inches at Warsaw.
    In 2004 (3rd-4th) Severe thunderstorms with heavy rain pounded
            New Mexico and west and southwest Texas. On the 4th,
            rainfall rates over parts of south Texas reached 2-4
            inches per hour. In Toyah, TX...40 of the 100 residents
            had to be evacuated, when the Arroyos and Raines that
            carve up the land, filled all at once, breaking an
            earthen dam, and sending a 3 foot wall of water through
            the town. Water still 18 inches deep covered the streets
            late in the day.
    In 2011 Severe weather affected much of Arkansas, primarily south
            of a Mena to Jonesboro line. Damaging winds was the main
            severe weather occurrence, but there was a tornado near
            Texarkana.
