    Today is Friday  January 4, 2013.   
    This is the 4th day of the year, there are 361 days left.   
      
    On this day...   
       In 1888 Sacramento CA received 3.5 inches of snow, an all-time record   
               for that location.  The heaviest snow in recent history was   
               two inches on February 5th in 1976.   
       In 1971 A blizzard raged from Kansas to Wisconsin, claiming 27 lives   
               in Iowa.  Winds reached 50 mph, and the storm produced up to   
               20 inches of snow.   
       In 1982 Milwaukee WI was shut down completely as a storm buried the   
               city under 16 inches of snow in 24 hours.  It was the worst   
               storm in thirty-five years.   
       In 1987 A storm moving off the Pacific Ocean spread wintry weather   
               across the southwestern U.S., with heavy snow extending from   
               southern California to western Wyoming.  Up to 15 inches of   
               snow blanketed the mountains of southern California, and   
               rainfall totals in California ranged up to 2.20 inches in the   
               Chino area.   
       In 1994 A major winter storm blanketed much of the northeastern U.S.   
               with heavy snow. More than two feet was reported in   
               northwestern Pennsylvania, with 33 inches at Waynesburg.   
               There were ten heart attacks, and 185 injuries, related to   
               the heavy snow in northwest Pennsylvania.  Whiteout   
               conditions were reported in Vermont and in northeastern   
               New York State. A wind gust to 75 mph was clocked at   
               Shaftsbury VT. In the Adirondacks of eastern New York State,   
               the town of Tupper reported five inches of snow between 1 PM   
               and 2 PM.
