    Today is Wednesday  September 10, 2025.   
    This is the 253rd day of the year, there are 112 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 1919 A hurricane struck the Florida Keys drowning more than   
               500 persons.   
       In 1960 Hurricane Donna struck the Florida Keys, with winds   
               gusting to 180 mph and a thirteen foot storm surge.  The   
               hurricane then moved north along the eastern coast of   
               Florida and inundated Naples before moving out to sea.   
               Hurricane Donna claimed 50 lives, injured 1800 others,   
               and caused more than 300 million dollars damage.  The   
               Marathon/Tavernier area was almost completely destroyed,   
               and in the Citrus Belt, most of the avacado crop was   
               blown from the trees.  Hurricane Donna wreaked havoc from   
               Florida to Maine, with wind gusts to 100 mph along much   
               of the coast.  Hurricane Donna produced wind gusts to 121   
               mph at Charleston SC on the 11th, and wind gusts to 138   
               mph at Blue Hill Observatory MA on the 12th.  The   
               hurricane finally died over Maine two days later,   
               producing more than five inches of rain over the state.   
       In 1976 Kathleen was the first tropical cyclone to hit southern CA   
               since 1939, its 6' high wall of water destroyed 70% of homes.   
       In 1987 A late afternoon thunderstorm roared through Austin TX   
               producing wind gusts to 81 mph and 2.17 inches of rain in   
               just sixty minutes.  The high winds toppled six National   
               Guard helicopters at the Robert Mueller Municipal   
               Airport, and damaged or destroyed numerous other   
               aircraft.   
       In 1988 Cool air sweeping into the north central U.S. brought   
               snow to some of the higher elevations of Montana.   
               The town of Kings Hill, southeast of Great Falls, was   
               blanketed with six inches of snow.  Tropical Storm   
               Gilbert strenghtened to a hurricane over the eastern   
               Carribean.   
       In 1989 Light snow fell in Montana overnight, with three inches   
               reported at Fairfield.  Billings MT reported a record low   
               of 33 degrees.  Unseasonably warm weather prevailed in   
               the northeastern U.S., with record highs of 86 degrees at   
               Caribou ME and 90 degrees at Burlington VT.
