Weather data after 1990 is PARTIAL. For more current
weather history, go to the National Climate Data Center
website at www.ncdc.noaa.gov
In 1641 An observer at Boston MA recorded a "great tempest of
wind and rain from the southeast all night, as fierce as
a hurricane, and thereupon followed the highest tide
which we have seen since our arrival here".
In 1957 Extremely destructive Santa Ana winds blew from Oxnard to
San Diego and inland parts of southern California. The
high winds produced a 28,000 acre brush fire on a 40-mile
front west of Crystal Lake. People were ordered off
streets in some areas due to flying debris. (21st-22nd)
In 1987 Eight cities in the eastern U.S. reported record low
temperatures for the date. Elkins WV, reported a low of
5 degrees above zero. Gale force winds continued along
the Northern Atlantic Coast.
In 1988 Wet and windy weather prevailed across the western U.S.,
with heavy snow in some of the higher elevations. Winds
gusted to 62 mph at Vedauwoo WY, and reached 75 mph at
Tillamook OR. Shelter Cove CA was drenched with 4.37
inches of rain in 24 hours.
In 1989 Strong northerly winds produced squalls along the shore
of Lake Michigan, with heavy snow in extreme southeast
Wisconsin. Milwaukee WI received nine inches of snow,
and in Racine County there were more than one hundred
automobile accidents.
In 2011 Hurricane Mitch became the strongest late season
hurricane in the Eastern Pacific basin, as a category
4 storm with 145 mph winds...although it was no threat
to land.
