    Today is Monday  September 15, 2025.   
    This is the 258th day of the year, there are 107 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 1752 A great hurricane produced a tide along the South   
               Carolina coast which nearly inundated downtown   
               Charleston.  However, just before the tide reached the   
               city, a shift in the wind caused the water level to drop   
               five feet in ten minutes.   
       In 1910 Rains of .27 inch on the 14th and .73 inch on the 15th   
               were the earliest and heaviest of record for Fresno CA,   
               which, along with much of California, experiences a   
               "rainy season" in the winter.   
       In 1939 The temperature at Detroit MI soared to 100 degrees to   
               establish a record for September.   
       In 1982 A snowstorm over Wyoming produced 16.9 inches at Lander   
               to esablish a 24 hour record for September for that   
               location.  (13th-15th)   
       In 1987 The first snow of the season was observed at the Winter   
               Park ski resort in Colorado early in the day.  Eight   
               inches of snow was reported at the Summit of Mount Evans,   
               along with wind gusts to 61 mph.  Early morning   
               thunderstorms in Texas produced up to six inches of rain   
               in Real County.  Two occupants of a car drowned, and the   
               other six were injured as it was swept into Camp Wood   
               Creek, near the town of Leakey.  Late afternoon and   
               evening thunderstorms produced severe weather in central   
               and northeastern Oklahoma.  Wind gusts to 70 mph and golf   
               ball size hail were reported around Oklahoma City OK.   
       In 1988 Thunderstorms brought much needed rains to parts of the   
               central U.S.  Rainfall totals of 2.87 inches at Sioux   
               City IA and 4.59 inches at Kansas City MO were records   
               for the date.  Up to eight inches of rain deluged the   
               Kansas City area, nearly as much rain as was received the   
               previous eight months.  Hurricane Gilbert, meanwhile,   
               slowly churned toward the border of Mexico and the U.S.   
       In 1989 Showers and thunderstorms produced locally heavy rain in   
               the Central Appalachians.  Virgie VA received 2.60 inches   
               of rain during the evening hours, and Bartlett TN was   
               deluged with 2.75 inches in just ninety minutes.  Heavy   
               rain left five cars partially submerged in high water in   
               a parking lot at Bulls Gap TN.  Thunderstorms over   
               central North Carolina drenched the Fayetteville area   
               with 4 to 8 inches of rain between 8 PM and midnight.   
               Flash flooding, and a couple of dam breaks, claimed the   
               lives of two persons, and caused ten million dollars   
               damage. Hugo, churning over the waters of the Carribean,   
               strengthened to the category of a very dangerous   
               hurricane, packing winds of 150 mph.   
       In 2010 Hurricane Julia increased rapidly to a Category 4 storm,   
               becoming the strongest hurricane on record so far east   
               in the Atlantic Ocean. At the same time, Hurricane Igor,   
               also in the Atlantic Ocean, was also a Category 4 storm.   
               This was the second time in recorded history that 2   
               Category 4 hurricanes were active at the same time in   
               the Atlantic. The previous occurrence was in 1926, when   
               Hurricanes Four and Six (storms were not named back   
               then) were in the Atlantic Basin. Hurricane Four stayed   
               in the Atlantic Ocean, while Hurricane Six hit Miami,   
               Florida as a Category 4 storm on Sept. 18, 1926.
