 Today is Monday  November 17, 2025.
 This is the 321st day of the year, there are 44 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 1869 Southwest winds of hurricane force swept the Berkshire
            and Green Mountains of New England causing extensive
            forest and structural damage.
    In 1927 A tornado cut a seventeen mile path across Alexandria and
            southeastern Washington D.C. injuring 31 persons.  The
            tornado struck the Naval Air Station where a wind gust of
            93 mph is recorded.  A waterspout was seen over the
            Potomac River ninety minutes later.
    In 1953 The temperature at Minneapolis MN reached 71 degrees,
            their warmest reading of record for so late in the
            autumn.
    In 1987 A storm in the Rockies produced 21 inches of snow at the
            Monarch ski resort in Colorado, with 14 inches reported
            at Steamboat Springs CO.  Early morning thunderstorms in
            the southeastern U.S. drenched Mary Esther FL with 4.43
            inches of rain.  Gale force winds over the Great Lakes
            Region gusted to 49 mph at Johnstown PA.
    In 1988 Another in a series of storms brought heavy snow to
            the mountains of the western U.S.  Totals ranged up to
            17 inches at Bob Scott Summit in Nevada.  Winds around
            Reno NV gusted to 80 mph.  The Alta and Sundance ski
            resorts in Utah received 14 inches of snow.
    In 1989 Freezing temperatures overspread the southeastern U.S. in
            the wake of the severe weather outbreak of the previous
            two days.  Eight cities reported record low temperatures
            for the date, including Gilbert AR with a reading of 8
            degrees.  A fast moving storm blanketed the Great Lakes
            Region and Upper Ohio Valley with snow during the night.
            Totals ranged up to 12 inches at Pellston MI and Little
            Valley NY.
    In 1999 Hurricane Lenny, approached category 5 status with 150
            mph winds, as it slammed into the northeast Caribbean.
            The storm moved from west to east, developing a few days
            earlier west of Jamaica...an unprecedented event.
    In 2002 A winterlike storm hit much of New England, with New
            Jersey receiving significant ice accumulations. At one
            time, over 87,000 homes were without power.
    In 2003 Thunderstorms with heavy rain and strong wind swept across
            the Houston, TX area. Parts of Houston received as much as
            10 inches of rain in 24 hours, with several bayous and
            creeks overflowing causing severe flooding. Several units
            at a Houston apartment complex lost their roofs from a
            possible tornado (several tornadoes were observed around
            the area). In nearby Sugarland, TX, 16 people were injured
            in weather related auto accidents...most from the strong
            winds blowing their vehicles off of the road.
    In 2013 A major severe weather outbreak occurred from the Upper
            Midwest through the Middle Mississipi Valley, into the
            Tennessee and Ohio Valley region. Numerous reports of
            severe weather...including tornadoes and damaging winds...
            were noted in many areas...with some of the tornadoes and
            damaging winds termed as "significant". Widespread damage,
            as well as numerous injuries and fatalities occurred across
            several states. An NFL game in Chicago was delayed by the
            severe weather in the area. Storms were moving at nearly 80
            in some cases...and with some of the tornadoes, there were
            "debris balls" noted on radar. Several vehicles were also
            overturned, due to the high winds. Preliminary data had
            over 400 severe weather reports...and around 80 of those
            were tornadoes. One tornado that hit Washington County,
            was rated as an EF-4.
    In 2014 (17th-21st) The Lake Effect Snow Machine was in high gear
            on the eastern shore of Lake Erie. Five to more than seven
            feet of snow (almost a years worth), piled up just south
            and east of Buffalo, New York. Buildings collapsed under
            the weight of the snow. At least 13 people died.
