    TODAY  Version 3.7   06/24/94       Copyright 1986, 1994  By Patrick Kincaid   
      
    Today is Monday  November 26, 2012.   
    This is the 331st day of the year, there are 35 days left.   
      
    On this day...   
       In 1888 A late season hurricane brushed the East Coast with heavy   
               rain and gale force winds.  The hurricane passed inside   
               Nantucket and over Cape Cod, then crossed Nova Scotia.   
       In 1896 Snow and high winds hit the Northern Plains and Upper   
               Mississippi Valley, with a Thanksgiving Day blizzard   
               across North Dakota.  The storm was followed by a severe   
               cold wave in the Upper Midwest.  The temperature at   
               Pokegama Dam MI plunged to 45 degrees below zero.   
       In 1983 The "Great Thanksgiving Weekend Blizzard" in CO was so   
               great, visibility at Limon was down to zero for 24 hours.   
       In 1987 A Thanksgiving Day storm in the northeastern U.S.   
               produced heavy snow in northern New England and upstate   
               New York.  Snowfall totals in Maine ranged up to twenty   
               inches at Flagstaff Lake.  Totals in New Hampshire ranged   
               up to 18 inches at Errol.  Gales lashed the coast of   
               Maine and New Hampshire.  A second storm, over the   
               Southern and Central Rockies, produced nine inches of   
               snow at Kanosh UT, and 13 inches at Divide CO, with five   
               inches reported at Denver CO.   
       In 1988 Thunderstorms produced severe weather over the Central   
               Gulf Coast States during the late morning and afternoon   
               hours.  Five tornadoes were reported in Mississippi, with   
               the tornadoes causing a million dollars damage at   
               Ruleville, and in Warren County.  In Utah, the town of   
               Alta was blanketed with 15 inches of snow overnight, and   
               during the day was buried under another 16.5 inches of   
               snow.   
       In 1989 A massive storm over the western U.S. produced heavy snow   
               in Utah, Colorado, Wyoming and Montana.  The   
               storm produced more than two feet of snow in the higher   
               elevations of northern and central Utah, bringing more   
               than sixty inches of snow to the Alta Ski Resort in the   
               Wasatch Mountains.  Winds in Utah gusted to 60 mph at   
               Bullfrog.  The storm brought much needed snow to the ski   
               resorts of Colorado, with 19 inches reported at Beaver   
               Creek.   
       In 2001 For the second time in less than a week, Arkansas and   
               surrounding states were ravaged by severe thunderstorms   
               and tornadoes...with more damage, injuries, and fatalities.
