 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 1939 A thunderstorm deluged Washington D.C. with 4.4 inches of
            rain in two hours.  September of that year was very dry
            across much of the nation, and Washington D.C. received
            more rain in that two hour period than most other places
            in the country that entire month.
    In 1970 The greatest natural disaster of record for Arizona
            occurred.  Unprecedented rains caused rivers in central
            Arizona to rise five to ten feet per hour, sweeping cars
            and buildings as far as 30 to 40 miles downstream.
            Flooding claimed the lives of 23 persons, mainly campers,
            and caused millions of dollars damage.  Water crested 36
            feet above normal near Sunflower AZ.  Workman's Creek was
            deluged with 11.40 inches of rain in 24 hour to establish
            a state record.  Moisture from Pacific Tropical Storm
            Norma led to the severe flooding.  (4th-6th) 
    In 1986 An unusually strong dust devil moved across the Flagstaff
            Pulliam Airport.  The dust devil blew open the doors of
            the National Weather Service office scattering papers and
            bringing down a ceiling-mounted light fixture. 
    In 1987 Thunderstorms developing along a stationary front
            produced heavy rain across the Southern Atlantic Coast
            States.  Up to eight inches was reported north of
            Charleston SC.  Serious flooding was reported in Monks
            Corner SC.  Seven cities in the northeastern U.S.
            reported record low temperatures for the date.
            Houlton ME dipped to 32 degrees.
    In 1988 The western U.S. experienced another day of record heat.
            The afternoon high of 91 degrees at Stampede Pass WA
            established an all-time record for that location, and Los
            Angeles CA equalled their all-time record high with a
            reading of 110 degrees.  The record high of 107 degrees
            at San Diego CA was their hottest reading in 25 years.
            Red Bluff CA was the hot spot in the nation with an
            afternoon high of 118 degrees.
    In 1989 Overnight thunderstorm rains of four and a half to seven
            inches drenched eastern Nebraska during the morning
            hours, pushing creeks out of their banks, and flooding
            fields, country roads and city streets.  Totals ranged up
            to 6.97 inches south of Creston.  It was also a soggy
            Labor Day for northern Florida, with 6.82 inches of rain
            reported at Jacksonville.  Evening thunderstorms produced
            2.75 inches of rain in one hour at Sandlewood FL.
    In 2010 After being as strong as a category 4 hurricane with 145
            winds a few days earlier...Tropical Storm Earl with 70
            mph winds, extending out 205 miles from the center, came
            ashore near Western Head Nova Scotia...producing a wide
            area of tropical storm force winds and flooding rain.
    In 2012 Strong winds from a Bering Sea storm impacted portions of 
            southern Alaska, from the Aleutians to south-central 
            Alaska, Tuesday evening through the overnight hours. Winds
            of 50-60 mph were prevalent in Anchorage, with gusts to 
            over 100 mph observed just east of Anchorage in the higher 
            elevations.
