    Today is Monday  September 22, 2025.   
    This is the 265th day of the year, there are 100 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 1890 A severe hailstorm struck Strawberry AZ. Five days after   
               the storm hail still lay in drifts 12 to 18 inches deep.   
       In 1913 Des Moines IA experienced their earliest freeze of record.   
       In 1961 Hurricane Esther made a near complete circle south of   
               Cape Cod.  The hurricane then passed over Cape Cod and   
               hit Maine.  Its energy was largely spent over the   
               North Atlantic Ocean, however, heavy rains over Maine   
               resulted in widespread local flooding of cellars, low   
               roads, and underpasses.   
       In 1983 Forty-one cities reported record cold temperatures during   
               the morning.  Houston TX hit 50 degrees, and Williston ND   
               plunged to 19 above.   
       In 1987 Hurricane Emily, the first hurricane to roam the   
               Carribean in nearly six years, made landfall over the   
               Dominican Republic late in the day, packing 125 mph   
               winds.  Emily killed three persons and caused thirty   
               million dollars damage.  A record high of 92 degrees   
               at Miami FL was their fifth in a row.   
       In 1988 An early morning thunderstorm produced baseball size hail   
               at Plainview, in Hale County TX.  Late in the evening   
               more thunderstorms in the Southern High Plains Region   
               produced wind gusts to 75 mph at Plainview TX and Crosby TX   
       In 1989 Hurricane Hugo quickly lost strength over South Carolina,   
               but still was a tropical storm as it crossed into North   
               Carolina, just west of Charlotte, at about 7 AM.  Winds   
               around Charlotte reached 69 mph, with gusts to 99 mph.   
               Eighty percent of the power was knocked out to Charlotte   
               and Mecklenburg County.  Property damage in North   
               Carolina was 210 million dollars, and damage to crops was   
               97 million dollars.  The strongest storm surge occurred   
               along the southern coast shortly after midnight, reaching   
               nine feet above sea level at ocean Isle and Sunset Beach.   
               Hugo killed one person and injured 15 others in North   
               Carolina. Strong northwesterly winds ushered unseasonably   
               cold air into the north central U.S., in time for the   
               official start of autumn, at 8:20 PM CDT.  Squalls produced   
               light snow in northern Wisconsin.  Winds in Wisconsin gusted   
               to 52 mph at Rhinelander.   
       In 2000 Tropical Storm Helene struck Pensacola, Florida, bringing   
               more heavy rain to an area hit just days earlier by   
               Tropical Storm Gordon.   
       In 2002 Hurricane Isidore, which had just days before ravaged   
               parts of Cuba, hit the Yucatan Peninsula near Progreso,   
               Mexico, with 125 mph winds. It stayed over land a few days,   
               weakening it considerably, but producing flooding rains   
               over the Yucatan Peninsula and Cuba, because of its large   
               circulation. Isidore weakened to a Tropical Storm by the   
               time it moved back into the Gulf Of Mexico...finally making   
               landfall near New Orleans as a Tropical Storm on the 26th.   
       In 2003 For the second time in just under a month, Baja California   
               was hit by a hurricane...this time, Hurricane Marty with   
               100 mph winds, coming ashore near San Jose Del Cabo. Heavy   
               rain of over 8 inches caused flooding and mudslides.   
               The remnants of Ivan, which hit Gulf Shores, Alabama and   
               adjacent areas on the 17th, had drifted off the southeast   
               U.S. Coast, then looped across south Florida, and into the   
               eastern Gulf Of Mexico...regenerating as a Tropical Storm   
               on the 22nd, coming ashore on the 23rd near Cameron,   
               Louisiana (22nd-23rd).
