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 1804 A famous snow hurricane occurred. The unusual coastal
storm caused northerly gales from Maine to New Jersey.
Heavy snow fell across New England, with three feet at
the crest of the Green Mountains, and a foot of snow in
the Berkshires, at Goshen CT.
In 1920 The temperature at Minneapolis MN reached 90 degrees,
their latest such reading of record.
In 1973 Fifteen to 20 inch rains deluged north central Oklahoma
in thirteen hours producing record flooding. Enid was
drenched with 15.68 inches of rain from the nearly
stationary thunderstorms, which established a state
24 hour rainfall record. Dover OK reported 125 of 150
homes damaged by flooding.
In 1979 A storm blanketed Worcester MA with 7.5 inches of snow,
a record snowfall total for so early in the season for
that location.
In 1983 Lightning struck a CB antenna on a moving car in Iowa and
formed a fireball in the front seat as the radio burned.
In 1987 Eleven cities in the north central U.S. reported record
low temperatures for the date, including Colorado Springs
CO with a reading of 23 degrees, and Havre MT with a low
of 11 above zero. Light snow was reported as far south
as Kansas. Omaha NE reported their third earliest snow
of record.
In 1988 Sunny and mild weather prevailed across the nation for
Columbus Day. The afternoon high of 77 degrees at
Kalispell MT was the warmest reading of record for so
late in the autumn season. Thunderstorms developing
along a cold front produced wind gusts to 56 mph at
Lorain OH. Snowflakes were observed at Milwuakee WI
around Noon, but quickly changed to rain as temperature
readings were in the lower 60s.
In 1989 Thunderstorms produced torrential rains along the
northeast coast of Florida. St. Augustine was deluged with
16.08 inches of rain. The heavy rain caused extensive
flooding of homes and businesses, and left some roads
under three feet of water. Ten cities from the Carolinas
to New England reported record low temperatures for the
date, including Concord NH with a reading of 23 degrees.
Temperatures dipped into the 30s in the Carolinas.
In 2001 A slow moving cold front, an area of low pressure, and
abundant moisture brought excessive rain to Arkansas. Two
day storm totals ranged from 3-5 inches in central Arkansas
to over 7 inches in parts of southwest Arkansas. (10th-11th)
