    Today is Wednesday  September 17, 2025.   
    This is the 260th day of the year, there are 105 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 1932 Concord NH was drenched with 5.97 inches of rain in   
               24 hours to establish a record for that location   (16th-   
               17th).   
       In 1963 Nearly two and a half inches of rain fell at Yuma AZ in   
               24 hours.  It was the most intense rain for Yuma during   
               the period between 1909 and 1977.   
       In 1965 A storm produced a band of heavy snow across parts of   
               Wyoming.  Totals of 23 inches at Rawlins and 20.7 inches   
               at Lander far surpassed previous snowfall record totals   
               for so early in the season.  (15th-17th)   
       In 1987 Thunderstorms produced large hail, damaging winds, and   
               heavy rain in the northeastern U.S.  Heavy rain in   
               southwestern Pennsylvania forced evacuation of twenty   
               homes along Four Mile Run Creek, near Darlington.   
               Harrisburg PA established a record for the date with 2.11   
               inches of rain.  A cold front in the central U.S. brought   
               freezing temperatures to parts of Montana and Wyoming.   
       In 1988 Early in the morning a tornado hit Kelly Air Force Base   
               in San Antonio TX injuring three persons and causing   
               twenty-eight million dollars damage.  A second tornado   
               on the northwest side of San Antonio caused six million   
               dollars damage, and a third tornado in Bexar County   
               killed one person and injured another.  Thunderstorms   
               associated with Hurricane Gilbert spawned a total of   
               forty-seven tornadoes in a two day period, with forty   
               tornadoes in central and south central Texas.   
       In 1989 Hurricane Hugo hit the Virgin Islands, producing wind   
               gusts to 97 mph at Saint Croix.  Hurricane Hugo passed   
               directly over the island of Saint Croix causing complete   
               devastation and essentially cutting off the island from   
               communications.  A storm surge of five to seven feet   
               occurred at Saint Croix.  The only rain gauge left   
               operating, at Caneel Bay, indicated 9.40 inches in   
               24 hours.  Hurricane Hugo claimed the lives of three   
               persons at Saint Croix, and caused more than 500 million   
               dollars damage.  A ship, Nightcap, in the harbor of   
               Culebra, measured wind gusts as high as 170 mph.   
               A cold front brought high winds to the Great Basin and   
               the Rocky Mountain Region, and thunderstorms along the   
               cold front produced wind gusts to 66 mph at Yellowstone   
               Park WY.   
       In 2000 Tropical Storm Gordon made landfall at Cedar Key, FL   
               with 70 mph winds. Previously a minimal hurricane, it   
               produced large amounts of rain and several tornadoes   
               across the Florida Peninsula as it approached.   
       In 2001 A severe hailstorm near Rocky Ford, CO killed 1500 birds,   
               most of them white pelicans.   
       In 2014 Harrison, Arkansas measured 1.41 inches of rain in only   
               12 minutes, from a strong thunderstorm in the area.
