TODAY Version 3.7 06/24/94 Copyright 1986, 1994 By Patrick Kincaid

Today is Friday May 28, 2010.
This is the 148th day of the year, there are 217 days left.

On this day...
In 1942 The latest snowstorm of record for the state of Iowa left
10 inches at LeMars, 8 inches at Cherokee, and 7.5 inches
at Waukon. Afternoon highs were in the lower 30s in
parts of northwestern Iowa.
In 1947 A storm produced heavy snow across Wisconsin, with ten
inches reported at Gay Mills. The snow damaged fruit and
other trees, and downed power lines. The storm was
followed by the coldest weather of the month for much of
the High Plains Region and Missouri Valley. Williston ND
reported a low of 21 degrees the morning of the 28th, and
the next morning Cheyenne WY reported a morning low of 16
above zero.
In 1987 Thunderstorms produced torrential rains in Oklahoma and
northern Texas. Lake Altus OK was deluged with nine
inches of rain. Up to eight inches drenched northern
Texas, and baseball size hail was reported north of
Seminole and at Knickerbocker. Ten to 13 inch rains
soaked central Oklahoma the last five days of May
resulting in an estimated 65 million dollars damage, and
forcing several thousand persons to evacuate their homes,
many by boat or helicopter.
In 1988 A sharp cold front began to usher cold, wet and windy
weather into the western U.S. Thunderstorms in the Great
Plains Region produced wind gusts to 80 mph near
Brokkings SD.
In 1989 Unseasonably hot weather continued in Florida. Five
cities reported record high temperatures for the date.
The record high of 98 degrees at Lakeland FL was their
fifth in a row. Thunderstorms produced severe weather in
Florida late in the day, with golf ball size hail
reported at Kissimmee.
In 1990 Two to five inches of rain over southeastern Ohio on the
28th and 29th capped an exceptionally wet month of May,
and triggered widespread flooding. Flooding which
resulted claimed three lives, and caused millions of
dollars damage. Numerous roads in southeastern Ohio were
flooded and impassable, and many other roads were blocked
by landslides.
In 2001 A tornado struck three mobile home parks in Elicott, CO...
east of Colorado Springs...several injuries and extensive
damage resulted.
