       Weather data after 1990 is PARTIAL. For more current

       website at www.ncdc.noaa.gov   
       In 1804 A large tornado crossed six Georgia counties killing at   
               least eleven persons near Augusta.   
       In 1933 Pigeon River Bridge MN reported 28 inches of snow, which   
               established the state 24 hour snowfall record.  (4th-5th)   
       In 1973 Sandia Crest NM reported a snow depth of 95 inches, a record   
               for the state of New Mexico.   
       In 1983 Colorado was in the midst of a three day winter storm.   
               Buckhorn Mountain, located west of Fort Collins, received   
               64 inches of snow.   
       In 1987 Rains of five to eight inches drenched eastern New York   
               State, and ten persons were killed in a bridge collapse   
               over Schoharie Creek.   
       In 1988 Sunny and warm weather prevailed across the nation.   
               Fort Smith AR reported a record high of 90 degrees.   
       In 1989 Thunderstorms produced severe weather from the Lower   
               Mississippi Valley to the Southern Appalachians.  The   
               thunderstorms spawned seventeen tornadoes, including one   
               which caused two million dollars damage at Baldwin AL.   
               Thunderstorm winds gusted to 90 mph at Bremen GA.   
       In 1990 A deep low pressure system in northern New York State   
               brought heavy snow to parts of western and central New York   
               during the day. The snowfall total of 5.8 inches at Buffalo   
               was a record for the date, and 9.5 inches was reported at   
               Rochester.  Snowfall totals ranged up to 11 inches at Warsaw.   
       In 2004 (3rd-4th) Severe thunderstorms with heavy rain pounded   
               New Mexico and west and southwest Texas. On the 4th,   
               rainfall rates over parts of south Texas reached 2-4   
               inches per hour. In Toyah, TX...40 of the 100 residents   
               had to be evacuated, when the Arroyos and Raines that   
               carve up the land, filled all at once, breaking an   
               earthen dam, and sending a 3 foot wall of water through   
               the town. Water still 18 inches deep covered the streets   
               late in the day.   
       In 2011 Severe weather affected much of Arkansas, primarily south   
               of a Mena to Jonesboro line. Damaging winds was the main   
               severe weather occurrence, but there was a tornado near   
               Texarkana.
