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.       --- SBBSecho 3.32-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           |
