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

Today is Monday June 7, 2010.
This is the 158th day of the year, there are 207 days left.

On this day...
In 1816 A famous June snow occurred in the northeastern U.S.
Danville VT reported drifts of snow and sleet twenty
inches deep. The Highlands were white all day, and
flurries were observed as far south as Boston MA.
In 1972 Richmond VA experienced its worst flood of record as
rains from Hurricane Agnes pushed the water level at the
city locks to a height of 36.5 feet, easily topping the
previous record of thirty feet set in 1771.
In 1987 Thunderstorms in the Laramie Mountains of eastern Wyoming
produced golf ball size hail, and up to five inches of
rain, in just one hour. Half a dozen cities in the Upper
Mississippi Valley reported record high temperatures for
the date, including La Crosse WI with a reading of 97
degrees.
In 1988 Snow whitened some of the mountains of northern
California and northwestern Nevada. Twenty-six cities in
the central and eastern U.S. reported record high
temperatures for the date, including Rapid City SD with
a reading of 104 degrees, and Miles City MT with a high
of 106 degrees.
In 1989 Thunderstorms produced severe weather from southern
Oklahoma and eastern Texas to northwestern Florida
through the day and night. Thunderstorms spawned
22 tornadoes, including a dozen in Louisiana, and there
were 119 reports of large hail and damaging winds. A (F-2)
tornado at Gross Tete LA killed two persons, injured
thirty others, and another (F-2) tornado injured 60
persons at Lobdell LA. Softball size hail was reported
at Hillsboro TX.
In 1989 A DC-8 crashed into the jungle attempting to land in a thick
fog shrouding the Paramaribo (Suriname) airport.
In 2003 An unsettled weather pattern that began over Arkansas on
7th continued for several days afterwards. On the 10th,
severe thunderstorms with hail, high winds, heavy rain,
and intense lightning plagued much of Arkansas. A house
in west Little Rock was damaged by a lightning strike.
On the 11th, much of the southern half of Arkansas was
hit again by severe weather, and flooding rains. Some
areas got from 3 to 10 inches of rain overnight, with
washed out roads and widespread flash flooding the
result.
