In 1926 A hurricane came inland near Daytona Beach FL. The
hurricane caused 2.5 million dollars damage in eastern
Florida, including the Jacksonville area.
In 1939 The temperature at Lewiston ID hit 117 degrees to
establish an all-time record high for that location.
In 1943 On a whim, and flying a single engine AT-6, Lieutenant
Ralph O' Hair and Colonel Duckworth were the first to fly
into a hurricane. It started regular Air Force flights
into hurricanes.
In 1987 Thunderstorms in Minnesota spawned a tornado which moved
in a southwesterly direction for a distance of thirty
miles across Rice and Goodhue counties. Trees were
uprooted and tossed about like toys, and a horse lifted
by the tornado was observed sailing horizontally through
the air. Thunderstorms drenched La Crosse WI with 5.26

southwestern U.S. Yuma AZ experienced their most severe
thunderstorm of record. Strong thunderstorm winds, with
unofficial gusts as high as 95 mph, reduced visibilities

as much rain in one hour as is normally received in an
entire year. The storm total of 2.55 inches of rain was
