 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 1882 An early season windstorm over Oregon and northern
            California blew down thousands of trees and caused great
            crop damage in the Sacramento Valley.
    In 1898 A hurricane struck the Georgia coast washing away
            Campbell Island.
    In 1959 A tornado struck the town of Ivy VA (located near
            Charlottesville).  Eleven persons were killed, including
            ten from one family.
    In 1980 The temperature at Blue Canyon CA soared to 88 degrees,
            an October record for that location.
    In 1981 Severe thunderstorms raked Phoenix AZ with heavy rain,
            high winds, and hail up to an inch and a half in
            diameter, for the second day in a row.  Thunderstorms on
            the 1st deluged Phoenix with .68 inch of rain in five
            minutes, equalling their all-time record.
    In 1987 A fast moving cold front produced snow flurries from
            Minnesota to the Appalachian Mountains, and gale force
            winds behind the front ushered cold air into the Great
            Lakes Region.  Valentine NE reported a record low of
            25 degrees.  Temperatures recovered rapidly in the
            Northern High Plains Region, reaching the low 80s by
            afternoon.  Jackson WY warmed from a morning low of
            21 degrees to an afternoon high of 76 degrees.
    In 1988 Early morning thunderstorms in Georgia produced three
            inches of rain at Canton and Woodstock.
    In 1989 Flooding due to thunderstorm rains in the southeastern
            U.S. on the last day of September and the first day of
            October caused the Etowah River to rise seven feet above
            flood stage at Canton GA.  Thunderstorms produced up to
            ten inches of rain in northeastern Georgia, with six
            inches reported at Athens GA in 24 hours.  One man was
            killed, and another man was injured, when sucked by
            floodwaters into drainage lines.
    In 2014 (2nd-3rd) Widespread severe weather occurred across
            Arkansas, with over 80 reports of severe weather. There
            were at least 5 hail reports, 3 tornadoes, and the rest
            were damaging wind. One man was killed in Malvern, AR,
            when a tree fell on his home.
