Today is Sunday June 18, 2017.
This is the 169th day of the year, there are 196 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 1875 A severe coastal storm (or possible hurricane) struck the
Atlantic coast from Cape Cod to Nova Scotia. Eastport ME
reported wind gusts to 57 mph.
In 1958 Hailstones up to four inches in diameter killed livestock
as a storm passed from Joliet to Belfry in Carbon County MT.
In 1970 Wind and rain, and hail up to seven inches deep, caused
more than five million dollars damage at Oberlin KS.
In 1987 It was a hot day in the Upper Great Lakes Region. Nine
cities in Michigan and Wisconsin reported record high
temperatures for the date. The high of 90 degrees at
Marquette MI marked their third straight day of record
heat. Severe thunderstorm in the Northern and Central
High Plains Region spawned half a dozen tornadoes in
Wyoming and Colorado. Wheatridge CO was deluged with 2.5
inches of rain in one hour.
In 1988 Severe thunderstorms in eastern North Dakota and northern
Minnesota produced hail three inches in diameter and
spawned four tornadoes in Steele County. Thunderstorms
also produced wind gusts to 80 mph at Clearbrook MN.
In 1989 Unseasonably hot weather prevailed in the southwestern
U.S. In Arizona, afternoon highs of 103 at Winslow, 113
at Tucson, and 115 at Phoenix were records for the date.
In 2001 A tornado with winds of 200 mph tore through the town of
Siren, WI...damaging much of the Main Street. Ironically,
the towns warning siren did not operate, due to having
been struck by lightning in April...and it had been
scheduled for repair a week after the tornado struck.
In 2002 Elizabeth NJ was hit by a hailstorm that dumped hail
to 8 inches deep.
