    Today is Tuesday  November 11, 2025.   
    This is the 315th day of the year, there are 50 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 1911 The central U.S. experienced perhaps its most dramatic   
               cold wave of record.  During the early morning hours   
               temperatures across the Central Plains ranged from   
               68 degrees at Kansas City to 4 above atNorth Platte NE.    
               In Kansas City, the temperature warmed to a record   
               76 degrees by late morning before the arctic front moved   
               in from the northwest.  Skies become overcast, winds   
               shifted to the northwest, and the mercury began to plummet.   
               By early afternoon it was cold enough to snow, and by   
               midnight the temperature had dipped to a record cold   
               reading of 11 degrees above zero.  Oklahoma City also   
               established a record high of 83 degrees and record low of   
               17 degrees that same day (11/11/11).  In southeastern   
               Kansas, the temperature at Independence plunged from 83   
               degrees to 33 degrees in just one hour.  The arctic cold   
               front produced severe thunderstorms and tornadoes in the   
               Mississippi Valley, a blizzard in the Ohio Valley, and a   
               dust storm in Oklahoma. Of particular note, Zanesville,   
               Wisconsin had an F-4 tornado, and blizzard conditions an   
               hour later.   
       In 1940 An Armistice Day storm raged across the Great Lakes   
               Region and the Upper Midwest.  A blizzard left 49 dead in   
               Minnesota, and gales on Lake Michigan caused ship wrecks   
               resulting in another 59 deaths.  Up to 17 inches of snow   
               fell in Iowa, and at Duluth MN the barometric pressure   
               reached 28.66 inches.  The blizzard claimed a total of   
               154 lives, and in Iowa, killed thousands of cattle.   
               Whole towns were isolated by huge snowdrifts.   
       In 1955 An early arctic outbreak set many November temperature   
               records across Oregon and Washington.  The severe cold   
               damaged shrubs and fruit trees.  Readings plunged to near   
               zero in western Washington, and dipped to 19 degrees   
               below zero in the eastern part of the state.   
       In 1987 A deepening low pressure system brought heavy snow to the   
               east central U.S.  The Veteran's Day storm produced up to   
               17 inches of snow in the Washington D.C. area snarling   
               traffic and closing schools and airports.  Afternoon   
               thunderstorms produced five inches of snow in three   
               hours.  Gale force winds lashed the Middle and Northern   
               Atlantic Coast.  Norfolk VA reported their earliest   
               measurable snow in 99 years of records.   
       In 1988 Low pressure brought snow to parts of the Rocky Mountain   
               Region.  Totals in the San Juan Mountains of southwestern   
               Colorado ranged up to 10 inches at Summitville.  Evening   
               thunderstorms produced large hail in central Oklahoma and   
               north central Texas.   
       In 1989 Veteran's Day was an unseasonably warm one across much of   
               the nation east of the Rockies.  Temperatures warmed into   
               the 70s and 80s from the Southern and Central Plains to   
               the southern half of the Atlantic coast.  Thirty-four   
               cities reported record high temperatures for the date,   
               including Saint Louis MO with a reading of 85 degrees.   
               Calico Rock AR and Gilbert AR reported record highs of 87   
               degrees.
