Today is Sunday June 5, 2016.
This is the 157th day of the year, there are 209 days left.
On this day...
Weather data after 1990 is PARTIAL. For more current
weather history, go to the National Climate Data Center
website at www.ncdc.noaa.gov
In 1859 Frost was reported from Iowa to New England. The
temperature dipped to 25 degrees in New York State, and
up to two inches of snow blanketed Ohio. The cold and
snow damaged the wheat crop.
In 1908 Helena MT was deluged with 3.67 inches of rain to establish
their all-time 24 hour rainfall record. (4th-5th)
In 1916 A tornado struck the town of Warren AR killing 83 persons.
There were 125 deaths that day in a tornado outbreak across
Missouri and Arkansas.
In 1917 Residents near Topeka KS reported disk-shaped hailstones
six to ten inches in diameter, and two to three inches
thick. The hailstorm was accompanied by a tornado.
In 1987 International Falls MN dipped to a record low reading of
34 degrees during the morning. Williston ND and Glasgow
MT reported record warm afternoon highs of 94 degrees.
Major flooding was reported along the Guadelupe River in
South Texas, with the water level at Cuero reaching 18
feet above flood stage.
In 1988 Twenty cities in the south central and eastern U.S.
reported record low temperatures for the date, including
Asheville NC with a reading of 40 degrees. Fifteen
cities in the north central U.S. reported record high
temperatures for the date. The high of 108 degrees at
Glasgow MT was a record for June.
In 1989 Thunderstorms produced severe weather from the Lower
Mississippi Valley to the Southern Atlantic Coast during
the day and into the night. Four tornadoes were
reported, and there were 87 reports of large hail and
damaging winds.
In 2001 Tropical Storm Allison formed rapidly in the Gulf Of
Mexico, and headed toward southeast Texas. Although a
"hybrid system", the storm dumped torrential, flooding
rains on south Texas...with areas from Houston to New
Orleans, and elsewhere...getting over 12 inches of
rain in a few hours time...with larger storm totals.
There were also a few tornadoes spawned by the remnants
of Allison...which moved little once inland. She finally
moved offshore and headed east into Alabama, but not
before dropping storm totals of near 4 feet, causing
extensive flooding, damage, and several deaths. The
remnants continued east northeast into Georgia, and
then moved up the eastern seaboard, and finally offshore
to merge with a cold front. (5th-18th).
In 2013 A severe thunderstorm formed a waterspout on the
Mississippi River, which was confirmed by the Coast Guard,
just northwest of Bartlett, Tennessee, near Memphis.
