    Today is Wednesday  January 16, 2013.   
    This is the 16th day of the year, there are 349 days left.   
      
    On this day...   
       In 1831 A great snowstorm raged from Georgia to Maine.  Snowfall   
               totals greater than 30 inches were reported from Pennsylvania   
               across southern New England.   
       In 1964 Fort Worth TX received 7.5 inches of snow, and Dallas   
               reported a foot of snow.   
       In 1987 A winter storm produced a total of 61 inches of snow at   
               Rye CO, and wind gusts to 100 mph in Utah.  The storm then   
               spread heavy snow from the Texas panhandle to Indiana.  Tulia   
               TX received 16 inches of snow, and up to 14 inches was   
               reported in western Oklahoma.   
       In 1988 A small storm in the western U.S. produced a foot of snow and   
               wind gusts to 70 mph in the Lake Tahoe Basin of Nevada.   
               Showers and thunderstorms produced 2.28 inches of rain at   
               Brownsville TX, their third highest total for any day in   
               January.   
       In 1989 Strong chinook winds plagued much of the state of Wyoming.   
               Winds gusted to 80 mph at Cody, and wind gusts to 100 mph   
               were reported in eastern and northwestern Wyoming.   
       In 1990 Heavy snow fell across the Prince Williams Sound area and   
               the Susitna Valley of southern Alaska.  Valdez was buried   
               under 64.9 inches of snow in less than two days, including   
               a record 47.5 inches in 24 hours.  Up to 44 inches of snow   
               was reported in the Susitna Valley.  The heavy snow blocked   
               roads, closed schools, and sank half a dozen vessels in the   
               harbor.   
       In 2003 (15th-17th) A mid-winter storm dumped heavy snow across   
               several states. Among those receiving significant snow were   
               Kansas City, MO, St. Louis, MO, Nashville, TN, Richmond,   
               VA, and Washington, DC.
