    Today is Wednesday  September 24, 2025.   
    This is the 267th day of the year, there are 98 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 temperature at Yellowstone Park dipped to nine   
               degrees below zero.  It was the coldest reading of record   
               in the U.S. during September.  Severe freezes were   
               widespread over the northwestern U.S. causing great crop   
               destruction.  Spokane County WA experienced their   
               earliest snow of record.  Harney Branch Experiment   
               Station in Oregon reported a temperature of 2 degrees   
               above zero to establish a state record for the month of   
               September.   
       In 1950 A smoke pall from western Canada forest fires covered   
               much of the eastern U.S.  Daylight was reduced to   
               nighttime darkness in parts of the Northeast.  The color   
               of the sun varied from pink to purple, blue, or lavendar.   
               Yellow to grey-tan was common.  (24th-30th)   
       In 1972 Lightning struck a man near Waldport OR.  The young   
               man happened to be carrying thirty-five pieces   
               of dynamite. A late evening thunderstorm produced   
               downburst winds at Bismarck ND estimated at 125 to 150 mph.   
       In 1987 The first full day of autumn proved to be a pleasant one   
               for much of the nation, with sunny skies and mild   
               temperatures.  Thunderstorms again formed over Florida   
               and the southwestern deserts, and also formed along a   
               cold front in the northeastern U.S.  A storm spotter at   
               Earp CA sighted a couple of funnel clouds, one on the   
               California side of the state line, and the other on the   
               Arizona side.   
       In 1988 Thunderstorms developing along a stationary front   
               produced large hail and damaging winds in the   
               southeastern U.S., with reports of severe weather most   
               numerous in North Carolina.  Golf ball size hail was   
               reported at Tick Creek and a number of other locations in   
               North Carolina.   
       In 1989 Forty-seven cities between the Rockies and the   
               Appalachians reported record low temperatures for the   
               date.  Lows of 38 at Abilene TX, 34 at Jackson KY, and 36   
               at Midland TX established records for the month of   
               September.  The low of 36 degrees at Midland smashed   
               their previous record for the date by thirteen degrees.   
               Fayetteville AR and Springfield MO reported their   
               earliest freeze of record. Thunderstorms produced   
               torrential rains in northeastern Florida. Jacksonville was   
               deluged with 11.40 inches of rain, and flash flooding   
               resulted in two deaths.   
       In 2001 An F-3 tornado struck the University Of Maryland campus at   
               College Park, Maryland. Two sisters were killed when their   
               car went airborne from the tornado. Over 50 were injured,   
               and many other vehicles and buildings had their windows   
               blown out, or suffered other damage. It was the deadliest   
               tornado to strike the Baltimore/Washington area since 1929,   
               and Maryland's first September killer tornado. Tornadoes   
               also struck Culpepper County, Virginia, causing damage.
