   Weather data after 1990 is PARTIAL. For more current

   website at www.ncdc.noaa.gov
   In 1913 The Ohio River Basin flood reached a climax.  Ten inch
           rains over a wide area of the Ohio River Basin
           inundated cities in Ohio, drowning 467 persons, and
           causing 147 million dollars damage.  The Miami River at
           Dayton reached a level eight feet higher than ever
           before.  The flood, caused by warm wather and heavy
           rains, was the second most deadly of record for the
           nation.
   In 1954 The temperature at Allaket AK plunged to 69 degrees
           below zero.
   In 1971 Parts of northern and central Georgia experienced their
           worst snow and ice storm since 1935.  Two day power
           outages ruined two million eggs at poultry hatcheries.
           Two persons were killed when a tree landed on their
           car.  (25th-26th)
   In 1987 A cold front crossing the Plateau Region produced high
           winds in Utah causing some property damage.  Winds
           gusted to 51 mph at Salt Lake City.
   In 1988 Twenty cities in the southwestern U.S. reported new
           record high temperatures for the date.  Afternoon highs
           of 73 at Flagstaff AZ, 90 at Sacramento CA, 95 at Santa
           Maria CA and Los Angeles CA, 99 at Tucson AZ, and
           100 degrees at Phoenix AZ set records for March.
   In 1989 The "Easter Bunny" brought record warm temperatures to
           the central U.S. while such records were still welcome.
           A dozen cities reported record warm readings, including
           Dodge City KS with an afternoon high of 88 degrees.
           Strong southerly winds gusted to 51 mph at Dodge City,
           and reached 55 mph at Salina KS.
   In 1990 Fair weather prevailed across the nation for the second
           day in a row.  Freezing temperatures were reported in
           the Middle Atlantic Coast Region in the wake of an
           early spring snowstorm.  Afternoon highs were again in
           the 70s and 80s in the southeastern U.S., and for the
           ninth day in a row, temperatures in the southwestern
           U.S. reached the 90s.
