For more current        weather history, go to the National Climate Data Center        website at www.ncdc.noaa.gov        In 1915 An unusually late season tornado struck the central        Kansas town of Great Bend killing eleven persons along        its 35 mile track. The tornado destroyed 160 homes in        Great Bend and caused a million dollars damage. Hundreds        of dead ducks dropped from the sky northeast of the        track's end.        In 1975 Another "freshwater fury" hit the Great Lakes. A large        ore carrier on Lake Superior, the Edmund Fitzgerald, sank        near Crisp Point with the loss of its crew of 29 men.        Eastern Upper Michigan and coastal Lower Michigan were        hardest hit by the storm, which produced wind gusts to 71        at Sault Ste Marie MI, and gusts to 78 mph at Grand        Rapids MI. Severe land and road erosion occurred along        the Lake Michigan shoreline. A popular hit song by        Gordon Lightfoot was inspired by the storm.        In 1987 A cold front brought snow to the Appalachian Region and        freezing temperatures to the central U.S. Up to nine        inches of snow blanketed Garrett County of extreme        western Maryland. Freezing temperatures were reported as        far south as El Paso TX and San Angelo TX. Gale force        winds lashed the Middle Atlantic Coast and the coast of        southern New England. Thunderstorms brought fire        quenching rains to Alabama, and produced large hail and        damaging winds in eastern North Carolina. Ahead of the        cold front, seven cities in Florida and Georgia reported        record high temperatures for the date as readings warmed        into the 80s.        In 1988 Strong winds circulating around a deep low pressure        system in southeastern Ontario buffeted the northeastern        U.S., with the Lower Great Lakes Region hardest hit.        Winds in western New York State gusted to 68 mph at        Buffalo, to 69 mph at Niagra Falls, and to 78 mph at        Brockport. Four persons were injured at Rome NY when a        tree was blown onto their car.        In 1989 Strong southwesterly winds prevailed along the eastern        slopes of the Rockies in Montana and Wyoming. Winds of        80 to 90 mph prevailed across the northwest chinook zone        of Montana, with gusts to 112 mph. Unseasonably warm        weather accompanied the high winds. Shortly after        midnight the temperature at Kalispell MT reached a record        59 degrees. Windy and wet weather prevailed across        Washington State. Strong southerly winds gusted to 70 mph        at Rattlesnake Ridge, near Hanford. Six rivers in western        Washington State rose above flood stage between the 9th        and the 11th of the month, following eight days of moderate        to heavy rain. Rainfall over the western slopes of the        Cascade Mountains between the 3rd and the 10th ranged from        14 to 24 inches. High freezing levels also caused the early        snowpack to melt, adding to the runoff in the rain swollen        rivers. Damage was heaviest in Whatcom County, where the        Nooksack River caused nearly six million dollars damage,        mostly to roads and bridges.        In 1999 Snowplows had to be called out in Eden Prarie, MN to clean        up after a hailstorm.        In 2002 (9th-11th) A widespread severe weather and tornado outbreak        affected a large area from Missouri, Arkansas, and Louisiana        eastward across the Mississippi River, to the east coast.        One tornado late on the 9th blew out the windows of a law        enforcement vehicle in Crittenden County, Arkansas. Coverage        and intensity both increased dramatically on the 10th, with        Tornado Watches and Tornado Warnings covering areas from        Pennsylvania southwest to Louisiana on the 10th. Damage was        widespread, with many injuries and fatalities across several        states. An F-4 tornado struck Van Wert, Ohio. Mossy Grove,        Tennessee, northwest of Knoxville, was all but destroyed.        Preliminary reports showed at least 56 tornadoes, and 44        fatalities.       --- SBBSecho 3.30-Win32        * Origin: The Thunderbolt BBS - Little Rock, Arkansas (1:19/33)       SEEN-BY: 19/25 33 38 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187 153/7715 154/110       SEEN-BY: 218/700 226/30 227/114 229/110 206 317 426 428 470 664 700       SEEN-BY: 229/705 266/512 291/111 320/219 322/757 342/200 387/18 25       SEEN-BY: 396/45 460/58 902/26 2320/105 5020/400 5075/35       PATH: 19/33 396/45 229/426           |
