Today is Thursday November 9, 2017.
This is the 313rd day of the year, there are 52 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 1913 The "freshwater fury", a rapidly deepening cyclone,
caused unpredicted gales on the Great Lakes. Eight large
ore carriers on Lake Erie sank drowning 270 sailors.
Cleveland OH reported 17.4 inches of snow in 24 hours,
and a total of 22.2 inches, both all-time records for
that location. During the storm, winds at Cleveland
averaged 50 mph, with gusts to 79 mph. The storm
produced wind gusts to 80 mph at Buffalo NY, and buried
Pickens WV under three feet of snow. (9th-11th)
In 1926 A tornado in Charles County of southern Maryland killed
17 persons.
In 1982 Seven tornadoes touched down in southern California,
three of which began as waterspouts. The waterspouts
moved ashore at Point Mugu, Malibu, and Long Beach. The
Long Beach tornado traveled inland ten miles causing much
damage.
In 1987 Showers and gusty winds associated with a cold front
helped extinguish forest fires in the Appalachian Region
and clear out smoke in the eastern U.S. Thunderstorms
produced locally heavy rains from eastern Texas to the
Tennessee Valley. Longview TX received 3.12 inches of
rain, including two inches in two hours, Tupelo MS was
soaked with 2.80 inches of rain.
In 1988 Thunderstorms developing ahead of a strong cold front
produced severe weather from eastern Oklahoma to central
Indiana. Hail more than two inches in diameter was
reported around Tulsa OK.
In 1989 High winds prevailed along the eastern slopes of the
Rockies from the afternoon of the 8th into the early
morning hours of the 9th. Winds of 50 to 80 mph
prevailed across the northwest chinook area of Wyoming,
with gusts to 100 mph. Winds in Colorado gusted to
97 mph at Fritz Peak (located near Rollinsville) the
evening of the 8th, and early in the morning on the 9th,
gusted to 78 mph west of Fort Collins.
In 1999 What a difference a year makes!! Sunny skies and highs
in the 70s for the northern plains...while a blizzard
was raging just one year earlier over the same area.
