    Today is Tuesday  February 10, 2026.   
    This is the 41st day of the year, there are 324 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 1899 The temperature at Monterey VA plunged to 29 degrees   
               below zero, a record for the state.   
       In 1973 A major snowstorm struck the southeastern U.S.   
               It produced as much as 18 inches in Georgia, and up to   
               two feet of snow in South Carolina.   
       In 1978 As much as eight inches of rain drenched southern   
               California resulting in widespread flooding and   
               mudslides.  The heavy rainfall produced a wall of water   
               which ripped through the mountain resort community of   
               Hidden Springs drowning at least thirteen persons.  The   
               storm was one of the most destructive of record causing   
               fifty million dollars damage.    
       In 1982 Bismarck ND experienced its 45th consecutive day of   
               subzero temperature readings which tied the previous   
               record long string of subzero daily lows ending on the   
               same date in 1937.   
       In 1983 (10th-12th) Heavy snow from northeast Georgia to eastern   
               Maine paralyzed much of the East.   
       In 1987 A storm in the northeastern U.S. produced heavy snow in   
               southeastern Maine.  Grand Falls and Woodland received 15   
               inches, mainly during the early morning hours, while most   
               of the rest of the state did not even see a flake of   
               snow.   
       In 1988 Bitter cold arctic air gripped the north central U.S.   
               International Falls MN was the cold spot in the nation   
               with a low of 35 degrees below zero.  Record warm   
               readings were reported in southern California, with highs   
               of 78 at San Francisco and 88 at Los Angeles.  San Juan   
               Capistrano CA was the hot spot in the nation with a high   
               of 92 degrees.   
       In 1989 For the first time all month winter relaxed its grip   
               on the nation.  The temperature at Brownsville TX warmed   
               above 60 degrees for the first time in six days, ending   
               their second longest such cold spell of record.   
       In 1990 Thunderstorms developing ahead of a cold front continued   
               to produce severe weather across the southeastern U.S.   
               through the morning hours and into the late afternoon.   
               There were a total of twenty-nine tornadoes in twenty-   
               nine hours, and 245 reports of large hail or damaging   
               winds.  Pre-dawn thunderstorms produced high winds which   
               injured at least seventy persons in Alabama and Georgia,   
               and caused more than twelve million dollars damage.  A   
               tornado at Austell GA prior to daybreak injured two   
               persons and caused two million dollars damage.    
       In 2013 Several tornadoes touched down across Louisiana,   
               Mississippi, and Alabama, causing widespread damage. An   
               especially large tornado (EF-4) moved through Hattiesburg,   
               Mississippi...causing damage to several buildings on the   
               University Of Southern Mississippi Campus, and nearby Oak   
               Oak Grove High School. Over 60 were injured...some   
               critically. Hail up to the size of softballs occurred in   
               some areas.   
       In 2021 An ice storm struck portions of Arkansas with freezing   
               rain and sleet...with numerous icy roads and power outages.   
               This was the prelude to 2 back to back snowstorms that   
               would blast the state just days later, with the entire   
               state under a winter storm warning for both storms just   
               days apart. Along the I-30 and US-67/167 corridor, snow   
               accumulations were the highest, with 8 to 12 inches in   
               several areas. Much of the state was below zero for lows   
               the morning of Feb. 16. Little Rock plunged to -1, with   
               north Arkansas approaching -20. Wind Chill Warnings and   
               covered much of the state. Road conditions were very icy   
               for several days, and there were rolling blackouts of   
               electricity. The massive storm stretched into adjacent   
               states, with a 130 car pileup in Fort Worth on icy roads,   
               where several died, and there were numerous injuries. A   
               tornado struck portions of North Carolina, with several   
               fatalities...and several homes moved off their foundations,   
               or totally destroyed. There was even snow in El Paso, TX.   
               At one point, Winter Storm Warnings stretched from   
               southwest Texas to the Gulf Coast to the Great Lakes, and   
               into New England. It was so cold that in some areas, birds   
               got frozen to bird feeders. At Little Rock, it also set   
               records for the snowiest February, the snowiest 24 hour   
               period, and the snowiest 7 day period (10th-18th).
