    Today is Wednesday  October 29, 2025.   
    This is the 302nd day of the year, there are 63 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 1917 The temperature at Denver CO dipped to zero, and at Soda   
               Butte WY the mercury plunged to 33 degrees below zero, a   
               U.S. record for the month of October.   
       In 1942 A tornado struck the town of Berryville in northwest   
               Arkansas killing 20 persons and causing half a million   
               dollars damage.   
       In 1956 A violent tornado, or series of tornadoes, moved along a   
               path more than 100 miles in length from south of North   
               Platte NE into Rock County NE.  It was an unusually late   
               occurence so far north and west in the U.S. for such a   
               storm.   
       In 1987 Severe thunderstorms in Arizona produced wind gusts to 86   
               mph at the Glendale Airport near Phoenix, baseball size   
               hail and 70 mph winds at Wickenburg, and up to an inch of   
               rain in fifteen minutes in Yavapai County and northwest   
               Maricopa County.  Arizona Public Service alone reported   
               2.5 million dollars damage from the storms.   
       In 1988 Wintry weather prevailed in the Upper Midwest.  South   
               Bend IN equalled their record for October with a low of   
               23 degrees.  International Falls MN reported a record low   
               of 11 degrees in the morning, then dipped down to   
               8 degrees above zero late in the evening.   
       In 1989 Thunderstorms developing along a cold front produced   
               severe weather in Oklahoma and north central Texas during   
               the late afternoon and evening hours.  Thunderstorms in   
               Oklahoma produced weak tornadoes near Snyder and   
               Davidson, and produced hail two inches in diameter at   
               Altus.  Large hail damaged 60 to 80 percent of the cotton   
               crop in Tillman County OK. Nine cities in the northeastern   
               U.S. reported record high temperatures for the date as   
               readings warmed into the 70s.  For Marquette MI, it marked   
               their fifth straight day of record warmth.  Arctic cold   
               invaded the western U.S. Lows of 7 above at Alamosa CO and   
               9 above at Elko NV were records for the date.   
       In 2003 A powerful storm battered Washington state, knocking out   
               power to thousands of people, with battering waves severely   
               damaging a dockside restaurant in Mukilteo. While no one   
               was injured at the restaurant, one person was killed by a   
               falling tree elsewhere.    
       In 2011 (29th-30th) An intense nor'easter brought heavy wet snow to   
               much of the northeast U.S. from Pennsylvania and Virginia   
               into Maine and the rest of New England. Over 4 million   
               people were without power, and at least 5 fatalities   
               occurred in the storm. The heavy wet snow falling onto   
               trees that still had fall foliage on them, brought many   
               branches crashing down onto roads and power lines.   
               Widespread travel disruptions occurred as well. It was   
               earliest winter (October) snow on record in some areas,   
               with many areas having more than a foot or more of snow.   
       In 2012 (22nd-31st) After affecting the Caribbean, causing flooding   
               and deaths in Jamaica, Haiti, and the Bahamas,   
               Post-Tropical Cyclone Sandy made landfall at Atlantic City,   
               New Jersey, with 80 mph winds, and a pressure of 946   
               millibars (27.93"). A large area of warnings for high   
               winds, flooding, and even blizzard conditions was across   
               much of the eastern US from the Carolinas into New   
               England. Millions of people were without power, and all   
               modes of transportation to and from the northeast US were   
               shut down, because of the storm.
