       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 Downtown Miami FL reported an all-time record low of   
               27 degrees.   
       In 1947 The temperature at Tanacross AK plunged to a record 75   
               degrees below zero, while Anchorage, AK set its all-   
               time record coldest temperature at 38 degrees below zero.   
       In 1987 Wintry weather was confined to freezing drizzle and light   
               snow in the northeastern U.S., and light rain and snow in   
               the western U.S.   
       In 1988 Arctic air continued to invade the central U.S.  The   
               temperature at Midland TX plunged from a record high of   
               80 degrees to 37 degrees in just three hours.  Morning   
               lows in the higher elevations of Wyoming were as cold as   
               38 degrees below zero.  Heavy snow blanketed southwestern   
               Colorado, with 16 inches reported at Steamboat Springs.   
                A winter storm brought heavy snow and high winds to   
               the western U.S.  Up to three feet of snow blanketed the   
               Sierra Nevada Range of California, and buried parts of   
               northeastern Washington State under three feet of snow in   
               five days.  High winds across Washington State reached 75   
               mph, with gusts to 105 mph. Severe cold gripped the north   
               central U.S.  The morning low of 29 degrees below zero at   
               Casper WY was a record for the month of February.  Wisdom MT   
               hit 53 degrees below zero. Missoula MT reported a wind chill   
               reading of 85 degrees below zero.   
       In 1990 Thunderstorms developing ahead of a cold front produced   
               severe weather over the central Gulf coast states during   
               the afternoon and evening hours.  Thunderstorms spawned   
               seven tornadoes in Alabama, including one which touched   
               down north of Birmingham injuring fifteen people and   
               causing nearly three million dollars damage.  A tornado   
               at Margaret injured eleven persons and caused a million   
               dollars damage.
