 Today is Tuesday  September 9, 2025.
 This is the 252nd day of the year, there are 113 days left.

 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 1921 A dying tropical depression unloaded 38.2 inches of rain
            upon the town of Thrall in southeastern Texas killing 224
            persons.  36.4 inches fell in 18 hours.
    In 1944 The "Great Atlantic Hurricane" ravaged the east coast.
            The storm killed 22 persons and caused 63 million dollars
            damage in the Chesapeake Bay area, then besieged New
            England killing 390 persons and causing another 100
            million dollars damage.
    In 1971 Hurricane Ginger formed, and remained a hurricane until
            the 5th of October.  The 27 day life span was the longest
            of record for any hurricane in the North Atlantic Ocean.
    In 1987 Thunderstorms produced severe weather in the central U.S.
            Thunderstorms in West Texas spawned four tornadoes in the
            vicinity of Lubbock, and produced baseball size hail and
            wind gusts to 81 mph at Ropesville.  Thunderstorms
            produced hail two inches in diameter at Downs KS and
            Harvard NE, breaking car windows at Harvard.  
    In 1988 Florence became a hurricane and headed for the Central
            Gulf Coast Region.  Florence made landfall early the next
            morning, passing over New Orleans LA.  Winds gusts to 80
            mph were recorded at an oil rig south of the Chandeleur
            Islands.  Wind gusts around New Orleans reached 61 mph.
            Total property damage from Florence was estimated at 2.5
            million dollars.
    In 1989 The first snow of the season began to whiten the
            mountains of Wyoming early in the morning, as for two
            days a moist and unusually cold storm system affected the
            state.  By the morning of the 11th, a foot of snow
            covered the ground at Burgess Junction.  Thunderstorms
            developing along a cold front crossing the Ohio Valley
            produced severe weather in Indiana during the late
            afternoon and early evening hours.  Strong thunderstorm
            winds blew down a tent at Palestine injuring seven
            persons, and frequent lightning interrupted the Purdue
            and Miami of Ohio football game, clearing the stands.
    In 2009 Hurricane Fred became the second major hurricane of the
            season; but what was unusual was that Fred was only the
            third major hurricane noted east of 35 degrees west 
            longitude in the Tropical Atlantic Ocean...and the
            strongest hurricane ever so far south and east. This
            type of system would have been very difficult to
            accurately observe before satellite pictures began in
            the 1960s.
