    Today is Sunday  October 19, 2025.   
    This is the 292nd day of the year, there are 73 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 1844 The famous "Lower Great Lakes Storm" occurred.   
               Southwesterly winds were at hurricane force for five   
               hours, driving lake waters into downtown Buffalo NY.  The   
               storm drowned 200 persons.   
       In 1961 Rain changed to a record early, heavy wet snow over the   
               southern mountains of West Virginia.  Leaves were still   
               on trees, resulting in the worst forest disaster since   
               the fires of 1952-1953.  One to two feet of snow fell   
               near Summersville and Richwood.  (19th-20th)   
       In 1984 Thunderstorms deluged the town of Odem TX (located   
               15 miles northwest of Corpus Christi) with 25 inches of   
               rain in just three and a half hours.  Most businesses in   
               Odem were flooded, as were 1000 homes in nearby Sinton.   
       In 1987 A cold front brought rainshowers to parts of the central   
               U.S., and ushered cool Canadian air into the Great Plains   
               Region.  Daytime highs were in the 30s in North Dakota   
               and eastern Montana.   
       In 1988 Thunderstorms produced high winds in eastern Colorado,   
               with gusts to 63 mph reported at La Junta.   
       In 1989 Record breaking snows fell across northern and central   
               Indiana.  Totals ranged up to 10.5 inches at Kokomo, with   
               9.3 inches reported at Indianapolis.  The 8.8 inch total   
               at South Bend was a record for the month as a whole.  Up   
               to seven inches fell in extreme southern Lower Michigan,   
               and up to six inches fell in southwest Ohio.  The heavy   
               wet snow downed many trees and power lines.  Half the   
               city of Cincinnati OH was without electricity during the   
               morning hours. Temperatures dipped below freezing across   
               much of the Great Plains Region.  Twenty cities, fourteen   
               in Texas, reported record low temperatures for the date.   
               North Platte NE reported a record low of 11 degrees.   
               Four cities in Florida reported record high temperatures   
               for the date.  The record high of 92 degrees at Miami was   
               also marked a record fourteen days of 90 degree weather   
               in October, and 116 such days for the year.   
       In 2000 Hurricane Michael, with 85 mph winds, struck Newfoundland   
               in the Canadian maritimes. Shortly before landfall, Michael   
               had 100 mph winds, reported by a ship that was caught in it   
               just offshore.
