   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 1927 An outbreak of tornadoes from Oklahoma to Indiana caused
           81 deaths and 25 million dollars damage.  A tornado
           (possibly two tornadoes) cut an eight-mile long path
           across Saint Louis MO, to Granite City IL, killing 79
           persons.  The damage path at times was a mile and a
           quarter in width.  The storm followed a similar path to
           tornadoes which struck in 1871, 1896, and 1959.
   In 1938 5 tornadoes hit the Charleston SC area, damaging Market
           and Broad Streets.  27 people died and 80 were injured.
   In 1959 A storm produced 28 inches of snow at Colorado Springs CO.
   In 1983 Heavy rains began in central and eastern Arizona which
           culminated in the worst flood in the history of the
           state.  Eight to ten inch rains across the area caused
           severe flooding in southeastern Arizona which resulted in
           thirteen deaths and 178 million dollars damage.
           President Reagan declared eight counties of Arizona to be
           disaster areas.
   In 1986 A week of violent weather began in Oklahoma which
           culminated in one of the worst flooding events in the
           history of the state.  On the first day of the week early
           morning thunderstorms caused more than a million dollars
           damage in south Oklahoma City.  Thunderstorms produced 4
           to 7 inches of rain from Hobart to Ponca City, and
           another round of thunderstorms that evening produced 7 to
           10 inches of rain in north central and northeastern
           sections of Oklahoma.
   In 1987 A slow moving cold front produced rain from the Great
           Lakes Region to the Central Gulf Coast Region.  A late
           afternoon thunderstorm produced wind gusts to 62 mph at
           Buffalo NY.  Warm weather continued in the western U.S.
           The afternoon high of 96 degrees at Medford OR was a
           record for the date.
   In 1988 High pressure brought freezing temperatures to parts
           of Vermont.  Burlington VT dipped to 30 degrees, and
           Binghamton NY reported a record low of 34 degrees.  High
           pressure also brought cold weather to the Central Rocky
           Mountain Region.  Alamosa CO reported a record low of 18
           degrees, and Gunnison CO was the cold spot in the nation
           with a morning low of just five degrees above zero.
   In 1989 Seven cities reported record high temperatures for the
           date, as readings soared into the 80s and low 90s in the
           Northern Plateau and Northern Plains Region.  Record
           highs included 91 degrees at Boise ID and 92 degrees at
           Sheridan WY.  The high of 100 degrees at Tucson AZ marked
           their 51st record high of the year, and their 92nd day of
           100 degree weather.
   In 2002 Just 9 days after being deluged by Tropical Storm Isidore,
           Tropical Storm Lili brought more heavy rain and flooding
           to Jamaica.
