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

Today is Thursday July 1, 2010.
This is the 182nd day of the year, there are 183 days left.

On this day...
In 1792 A tremendous storm (a tornado or hurricane) hit
Philadelphia and New York City. Many young people were
drowned while out boating on that Sunday.
In 1911 The high of just 79 degrees at Phoenix AZ was their
coolest daily maximum of record for the month of July.
The normal daily high for July 1st is 105 degrees.
In 1979 It snowed almost half a foot (5.8 inches) at Stampede
Pass Washington, a July record.
In 1987 Lake Charles LA was drenched with a month's worth of rain
during the early morning. More than five inches of rain
soaked the city, including 2.68 inches in one hour. A
thunderstorm in the southern Yakima Valley of Washington
State produced high winds which downed trees up to six
feet in diameter.
In 1988 Twenty-six cities in the north central and northeastern
U.S. reported record low temperatures for the date. Lows
of 48 at Providence RI, 48 at Roanoke VA, 49 at Stratford
CT, and 48 at Wilmington DE, were records for July.
Boston MA equalled their record for July with a low of 50
degrees. Five inches of snow whitened Mount Washington NH.
In 1989 Showers and thunderstorms associated with the low
pressure system which was once Tropical Storm Allison
continued to drench parts of Mississippi, Louisiana
and eastern Texas. Late night thunderstorms produced
12.58 inches of rain at Biloxi MS in six hours, and 10.73
inches at Gulfport MS. Flooding in Mississippi over the
first six days of the month caused 55 million dollars
damage.
In 1989 A tornado in Victoria, Australia, tracked 43 miles of
destruction, even burying some birds head first into the
ground.
In 2002 An upper level low brought heavy rains and flash flooding
to Texas and adjacent states. The San Antonio, Texas area
was especially hard hit, with 9 inches of rain falling in
30 hours...6 inches of that in 3 hours. Two died with the
flooding, with over 100 people being evacuated or rescued
by emergency personnel. (1st-2nd).
