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

Today is Sunday June 6, 2010.
This is the 157th day of the year, there are 208 days left.

On this day...
In 1816 The temperature reached 92 degrees at Salem MA during an
early heat wave, but then plunged 49 degrees in 24 hours
to commence the famous "year without a summer".
In 1894 One of the greatest floods in U.S. history occurred as
the Williamette River overflowed to inundate half of the
business district of Portland OR.
In 1975 A tornado, reportedly spinning backwards (clockwise), was
sighted near Alva OK.
In 1977 Severe thunderstorms with large hail and winds to 100 mph
caused one million dollars damage around Norfolk VA. A
forty-two foot fishing boat capsized near the Chesapeake
Bay Bridge Tunnel drowning 13 of the 27 persons on board.
In 1987 Thunderstorms in southern California produced one inch
hail at Mount Pinos, and marble size hail at Palmdale.
Thunderstorms in southeastern Arizona produced heavy rain
leaving some washes under four feet of water. Six cities
in the north central U.S. reported record high
temperatures for the date as readings soared into the
upper 90s.
In 1988 Seventeen cities in the north central U.S. reported
record high temperatures for the date, including
Williston ND with a reading of 104 degrees. Thunder-
storms in Florida produced wind gusts to 65 mph which
damaged two mobile homes northwest of Melbourne injuring
six people.
In 1989 Thunderstorms developing during the late morning hours
produced severe weather through the afternoon and night.
Thunderstorms spawned 13 tornadoes, and there were 154
reports of large hail and damaging winds. A strong (F-3)
tornado injured six persons at Lorenzo TX, and
thunderstorm winds gusting to 100 mph killed one person
at Glasscock City TX. Softball size hail was reported at
Lipscomb TX and Glen Cove TX.

One correction: there's no Glasscock City in the county of the same name.
The county seat is Garden City. (In southeast Texas, we're getting
mid-August weather in early June, and the mercury will be flirting with high
30s (C) in the next few days, which doesn't bode well for the tropical Gulf
season.)
