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.
