Weather data after 1990 is PARTIAL. For more current
weather history, go to the National Climate Data Center

In 1888 A late season hurricane brushed the East Coast with heavy
rain and gale force winds. The hurricane passed inside
Nantucket and over Cape Cod, then crossed Nova Scotia.
In 1896 Snow and high winds hit the Northern Plains and Upper
Mississippi Valley, with a Thanksgiving Day blizzard
across North Dakota. The storm was followed by a severe
cold wave in the Upper Midwest. The temperature at
Pokegama Dam MI plunged to 45 degrees below zero.
In 1983 The "Great Thanksgiving Weekend Blizzard" in CO was so
great, visibility at Limon was down to zero for 24 hours.
In 1987 A Thanksgiving Day storm in the northeastern U.S.
produced heavy snow in northern New England and upstate
New York. Snowfall totals in Maine ranged up to twenty
inches at Flagstaff Lake. Totals in New Hampshire ranged
up to 18 inches at Errol. Gales lashed the coast of
Maine and New Hampshire. A second storm, over the
Southern and Central Rockies, produced nine inches of
snow at Kanosh UT, and 13 inches at Divide CO, with five
inches reported at Denver CO.
In 1988 Thunderstorms produced severe weather over the Central
Gulf Coast States during the late morning and afternoon
hours. Five tornadoes were reported in Mississippi, with
the tornadoes causing a million dollars damage at
Ruleville, and in Warren County. In Utah, the town of
Alta was blanketed with 15 inches of snow overnight, and
during the day was buried under another 16.5 inches of
snow.
In 1989 A massive storm over the western U.S. produced heavy snow
in Utah, Colorado, Wyoming and Montana. The
storm produced more than two feet of snow in the higher
elevations of northern and central Utah, bringing more
than sixty inches of snow to the Alta Ski Resort in the
Wasatch Mountains. Winds in Utah gusted to 60 mph at
Bullfrog. The storm brought much needed snow to the ski
resorts of Colorado, with 19 inches reported at Beaver
Creek.
In 2001 For the second time in less than a week, Arkansas and
surrounding states were ravaged by severe thunderstorms
and tornadoes...with more damage, injuries, and fatalities.
