    Today is Wednesday  December 31, 2025.   
    This is the 365th day of the year, there are 0 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 1917 The temperature at Lewisburg WV plunged to 37 degrees   
               below zero to set a state record.   
       In 1929 Greenland Ranch, in Death Valley, California, went the   
               entire year without measurable precipitation.   
       In 1933 A 24 hour rainfall of 7.36 inches set the stage for the   
               worst flood in Los Angeles history.  Flooding claimed 44   
               lives.   
       In 1941 Snow which began on New Year's Eve became a major   
               blizzard on New Year's Day, burying Des Moines IA uunder   
               19.8 inches of snow in 24 hours, an all-time record for   
               that location.   
       In 1947 A late afternoon tornado touched down 10 miles north   
               of Shreveport LA, and dissipated south of El Dorado AR.   
               The tornado, as much as 400 yards in width, killed   
               18 persons.  It damaged or destroyed two thirds of the   
               structures at Cotton Valley LA.   
       In 1962 Perhaps the worst blizzard in the history of the state of   
               Maine finally came to an end.  The storm produced   
               40 inches in 24 hours at Orono, and a total of 46 inches   
               at Ripogenus Dam.  Gale force winds produced snow drifted   
               twenty feet high around Bangor. A disastrous icestorm was   
               over Georgia and South Carolina.  It ravaged the two states   
               for days causing more than seven million dollars damage.   
       In 1963 A snowstorm struck the Deep South.  Meridian MS received   
               15 inches of snow, 10.5 inches blanketed Bay St Louis MS,   
               and 4.5 inches fell at New Orleans LA.  Freezing   
               temperatures then prevailed for New Year's Day.   
       In 1987 Torrential rains caused extensive flash flooding   
               over eastern sections of the island of Ohau in Hawaii,   
               resulting in many rock and mud slides.  Rainfall totals   
               ranged up to 22.89 inches in a 24 hour period, and   
               property damage was estimated at 35 million dollars.   
               Strong winds continued to usher arctic cold into the   
               north central U.S.  The temperature at Alexandria MN   
               remained below zero through the day, and Jamestown ND   
               reported a wind chill reading of 58 degrees below zero.   
               Gales lashed the Great Lakes, with wind gusts to 54 mph   
               reported at Lansing MI.   
       In 1988 Warm and wet weather prevailed in the southeastern U.S.   
               Six cities in Florida reported record high temperatures   
               for the date.  Thunderstorms produced locally heavy rains   
               from the Lower Mississippi Valley to the Southern   
               Atlantic Coast.   
       In 1989 The year and decade ended on a soggy note in the eastern   
               U.S.  Thunderstorm rains pushed precipitation totals for   
               the year to 88.32 inches at Baton Rouge, and to 75.37   
               inches at Huntsville AL, establishing all-time records   
               for those two locations.  Dry weather continued in   
               California.  Sacramento and San Francisco finished the   
               month without any rain or snow, and Santa Maria reported   
               their driest year of record with just 3.30 inches of   
               precipitation.
