Weather data after 1990 is PARTIAL. For more current
weather history, go to the National Climate Data Center

In 1806 A total eclipse of the sun was viewed from southern
California to Massachusetts.
The temperature soared to 124 degrees at Mecca climaxing
the most destructive heat wave of record in California
history.
In 1944 A tornado in Sioux City IA traveled an odd course.
It spun in one place for about twenty minutes, made a U-
turn, traveled southeast for about three miles, then
traveled south, east, north, and finally east again.
In 1987 Temperatures soared above 100 degrees in the Upper
Midwest, reaching 104 degrees at Lincoln NE. Thunder-
storms produced wind gusts to 96 mph at Valley City ND,
and baseball size hail near Red Oak IA.
In 1988 After a brief respite, hot weather returned to the
Northern High Plains Region. Late night thunderstorms in
Montana produced wind gusts to 70 mph at Polson and north
of Lake Seeley.
In 1989 Daytime thunderstorms produced severe weather from
northern Florida to the Middle Atlantic Coast. The
thunderstorms spawned eight tornadoes, and there were 138
reports of large hail and damaging winds. Thunderstorm
winds gusting to 87 mph caused 20 million dollars damage
at Columbia SC. Strong thunderstorm winds killed one
person at McLeansville NC.
In 2014 A rare double tornado (two tornadoes side by side), blasted
through Pilger, Nebraska, causing widespread damage. Severe
storms extended into the Dakotas, Minnesota, and Iowa.
