    Today is Thursday  September 18, 2025.   
    This is the 261st day of the year, there are 104 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 1926 The great "Miami Hurricane" produced winds reaching   
               138 mph which drove ocean waters into the Biscayne Bay   
               drowning 135 persons.  The eye of the hurricane passed   
               over Miami, at which time the barometric pressure reached   
               27.61 inches.  Tides up to twelve feet high accompanied   
               the hurricane, which claimed a total of 372 lives.   
       In 1987 Early morning thunderstorms in northern Texas produced   
               wind gusts to 65 mph at Sulphur Springs, and 2.50 inches   
               of rain in one hour to Commerce, which caused widespread   
               street flooding.  Bonham TX received 4.50 inches of rain   
               which also resulted in widespread street flooding as Pig   
               Branch overflowed its banks.   
       In 1988 A strong cold front produced severe thunderstorms in the   
               north central U.S.  High winds behind the cold front   
               gusted to 92 mph at Fort Collins CO, and up to a foot of   
               snow blanketed the mountains of Montana, with seven   
               inches reported at Great Falls.  High winds in Colorado   
               caused three million dollars damage.   
       In 1989 Hurricane Hugo hit Puerto Rico, producing wind gusts   
               to 92 mph at San Juan, and wind gusts to 120 mph at   
               Roosevelt Roads.  Hugo produced a storm surge of four to   
               six feet, and northeastern sections of the island were   
               deluged with more than ten inches of rain.  Hugo claimed   
               the lives of a dozen persons in Puerto Rico, and caused   
               a bilion dollars damage, incuding 100 million dollars   
               damage to crops. Thunderstorms representing what remained   
               of Hurricane Octave continued to bring heavy rain to the   
               valleys of northern California.  Heavier 24 hour rainfall   
               totals included 3.15 inches at Redding, and 2.66 inches at   
               Red Bluff.   
       In 2003 Hurricane Isabel, which at one time, was a category 5   
               hurricane, the first in the Atlantic basin since Mitch in   
               1998, weakened to a category 2 hurricane before coming   
               ashore at Drum Inlet, North Carolina. Isabel was a rather   
               large storm, with tropical storm and hurricane force winds,   
               as well as heavy rains, spreading over a large area.
