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

Today is Sunday June 27, 2010.
This is the 178th day of the year, there are 187 days left.

On this day...
In 1901 There was a rain of fish from the sky at Tiller's Ferry.
Hundreds of fish were swimming between cotton rows after
a heavy shower.
In 1915 The temperature at Fort Yukon AK soared to 100 degrees to
establish a state record.
In 1957 Hurricane Audrey smashed ashore at Cameron LA drowning
390 persons in the storm tide, and causing 150 million
dollars damage in Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi.
Audrey left only a brick courthouse and a cement-block
icehouse standing at Cameron, and when the waters settled
in the town of Crede, only four buildings remained. The
powerful winds of Audrey tossed a fishing boat weighing
78 tons onto an off-shore drilling platform. Winds along
the coast gusted to 105 mph. Oil rigs off the Louisiana
coast reported wind gusts to 180 mph. A storm surge
greater than twelve feet inundated the Louisiana coast as
much as 25 miles inland. It was the deadliest June
hurricane of record for the U.S.
In 1987 Thunderstorms moving out of Nebraska produced severe
weather in north central Kansas after midnight.
Thunderstorm winds gusting to 100 mph damaged more than
fifty camping trailers at the state park campground at
Lake Waconda injuring 16 persons. Thunderstorm winds
gusted to 80 mph at Beloit and Sylvan Grove.
In 1988 The afternoon high of 107 degrees at Bismarck ND was a
record for the month of June, and Pensacola FL equalled
their June record with a reading of 101 degrees.
Temperatures in the Great Lakes Region and the Ohio
Valley dipped into the 40s.
In 1989 Thunderstorms produced severe weather from the Ohio
Valley to western New England. Thunderstorm spawned six
tornadoes, and there were 98 reports of large hail and
damaging winds. Tropical Storm Allison spawned
six tornadoes in Louisiana, injuring two persons at
Hackberry. Fort Polk LA was drenched with 10.09 inches
of rain in 36 hours, and 12.87 inches was reported at the
Gorum Fire Tower in northern Louisiana.
