 TODAY  Version 3.7   06/24/94       Copyright 1986, 1994  By Patrick Kincaid

 Today is Friday  September 12, 2025.
 This is the 255th day of the year, there are 110 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 1882 Hot and dry winds caused tree foliage in eastern Kansas
            to wither and crumble.
    In 1977 Thunderstorms deluged the Kansas City area with
            torrential rains in the early morning hours, and then
            again that evening.  Some places were deluged with more
            than six inches of rain twice that day, with up to
            18 inches of rain reported at Independence MO.  Flooding
            claimed the lives of 25 persons.  The Country Club Plaza
            area was hardest hit.  2000 vehicles had to be towed
            following the storm, 150 of which had to be pulled out of
            Brush Creek, which runs through the Plaza area.
    In 1979 Hurricane Frederick smashed into the Mobile Bay area of
            Alabama packing 132 mph winds.  Winds gusts to 145 mph
            were reported as the eye of the hurricane moved over
            Dauphin Island AL, just west of Mobile.  Frederick
            produced a fifteen foot storm surge near the mouth of
            Mobile Bay.  The hurricane was the costliest in U.S.
            history causing 2.3 billion dollars damage.
    In 1987 Showers and thunderstorms produced heavy rain which
            caused flooding in North Carolina, West Virginia,
            Virginia and Pennsylvania.  Parts of Virginia received 3
            to 4 inches of rain in just two hours early in the day.
            Later in the day, 3 to 5 inch rains deluged Cumberland
            County of south central Pennsylvania.  Evening
            thunderstorms produced seven inches of rain at Marysville
            PA, most of which fell in three hours time.
    In 1988 An afternoon thunderstorm spawned a tornado which skipped
            across northern sections of Indianapolis IN damaging
            roofs and automobiles.  It was the first tornado in
            central Indiana in September in nearly forty years of
            records.  Hurricane Gilbert plowed across the island of
            Jamaica, and by the end of the day was headed for the
            Cayman Islands, packing winds of 125 mph.
    In 1989 Snow whitened the mountains and foothills of northeast
            Colorado, with eight inches reported at Buckhorn
            Mountain, west of Fort Collins.  Two to three inches fell
            around Denver, causing great havoc during the evening
            rush hour. Thunderstorms produced severe weather in the
            Southern Plains Region between mid afternoon and early the
            next morning.  Thunderstorms produced hail three inches in
            diameter at Roswell NM, and wind gusts greater than
            98 mph at Henryetta OK.  Thunderstorms also produced
            torrential rains, with more than seven inches at Scotland
            TX, with more than six inches at Yukon OK.
    In 1999 Hurricane Floyd, with 150 mph winds, covered much of the
            Atlantic Ocean, just off the Florida Coast.
    In 2002 Santaquin, UT, was hit with 3 devastating mudslides,
            that were caused by a combination of recent heavy rain,
            hail, and wildfires. Widespread damage resulted.
    In 2003 Typhoon Maemi, with 135 mph winds, hammered South Korea,
            killing at least 87, leaving thousands homeless, and downed
            trees, powerlines, and caused a landslide. Storm totals 
            were over 10 inches in many areas...and it was the worst
            storm to hit the region in nearly a centry. 
    In 2013 An estimated 6 to 10 inches of rain fell during 12 to 18
            hours along Colorado's Rocky Mountain Range, from Boulder
            south to Colorad Springs...causing residents to be
            evacuated, washing out roads, and killing at least 3.
            Several communities were cut off by the floodwaters.
