    Today is Friday  September 12, 2025.   
    This is the 255th day of the year, there are 110 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 1882 Hot and dry winds caused tree foliage in eastern Kansas   
               to wither and crumble.   
       In 1977 Thunderstorms deluged the Kansas City area with   
               torrential rains in the early morning hours, and then   
               again that evening.  Some places were deluged with more   
               than six inches of rain twice that day, with up to   
               18 inches of rain reported at Independence MO.  Flooding   
               claimed the lives of 25 persons.  The Country Club Plaza   
               area was hardest hit.  2000 vehicles had to be towed   
               following the storm, 150 of which had to be pulled out of   
               Brush Creek, which runs through the Plaza area.   
       In 1979 Hurricane Frederick smashed into the Mobile Bay area of   
               Alabama packing 132 mph winds.  Winds gusts to 145 mph   
               were reported as the eye of the hurricane moved over   
               Dauphin Island AL, just west of Mobile.  Frederick   
               produced a fifteen foot storm surge near the mouth of   
               Mobile Bay.  The hurricane was the costliest in U.S.   
               history causing 2.3 billion dollars damage.   
       In 1987 Showers and thunderstorms produced heavy rain which   
               caused flooding in North Carolina, West Virginia,   
               Virginia and Pennsylvania.  Parts of Virginia received 3   
               to 4 inches of rain in just two hours early in the day.   
               Later in the day, 3 to 5 inch rains deluged Cumberland   
               County of south central Pennsylvania.  Evening   
               thunderstorms produced seven inches of rain at Marysville   
               PA, most of which fell in three hours time.   
       In 1988 An afternoon thunderstorm spawned a tornado which skipped   
               across northern sections of Indianapolis IN damaging   
               roofs and automobiles.  It was the first tornado in   
               central Indiana in September in nearly forty years of   
               records.  Hurricane Gilbert plowed across the island of   
               Jamaica, and by the end of the day was headed for the   
               Cayman Islands, packing winds of 125 mph.   
       In 1989 Snow whitened the mountains and foothills of northeast   
               Colorado, with eight inches reported at Buckhorn   
               Mountain, west of Fort Collins.  Two to three inches fell   
               around Denver, causing great havoc during the evening   
               rush hour. Thunderstorms produced severe weather in the   
               Southern Plains Region between mid afternoon and early the   
               next morning.  Thunderstorms produced hail three inches in   
               diameter at Roswell NM, and wind gusts greater than   
               98 mph at Henryetta OK.  Thunderstorms also produced   
               torrential rains, with more than seven inches at Scotland   
               TX, with more than six inches at Yukon OK.   
       In 1999 Hurricane Floyd, with 150 mph winds, covered much of the   
               Atlantic Ocean, just off the Florida Coast.   
       In 2002 Santaquin, UT, was hit with 3 devastating mudslides,   
               that were caused by a combination of recent heavy rain,   
               hail, and wildfires. Widespread damage resulted.   
       In 2003 Typhoon Maemi, with 135 mph winds, hammered South Korea,   
               killing at least 87, leaving thousands homeless, and downed   
               trees, powerlines, and caused a landslide. Storm totals    
               were over 10 inches in many areas...and it was the worst   
               storm to hit the region in nearly a centry.    
       In 2013 An estimated 6 to 10 inches of rain fell during 12 to 18   
               hours along Colorado's Rocky Mountain Range, from Boulder   
               south to Colorad Springs...causing residents to be   
               evacuated, washing out roads, and killing at least 3.   
               Several communities were cut off by the floodwaters.
