 Today is Thursday  March 30, 2006.
 This is the 89th day of the year, there are 276 days left.

 On this day...
    In 1823 A great Northeast storm with hurricane force winds
            raged from Pennsylvania to Maine.  The storm was most
            severe over New Jersey with high tides, uprooted trees,
            and heavy snow inland.
    In 1899 A storm which buried Ruby CO under 141 inches of snow
            came to an end.  Ruby was an old abandoned mining town
            on the Elk Mountain Range in the Crested Butte area.
    In 1977 Hartford CT hit 87 degrees to establish a record for
            the month of March.
    In 1987 A storm spread heavy snow across the Ohio Valley and
            Lower Great Lakes Region.  Cleveland OH received
            16 inches of snow in 24 hours, their second highest
            total of record.  Winds gusting to 50 mph created eight
            to twelve foot waves on Lake Huron.  The storm ushered
            unseasonably cold air into the south central and
            southeastern U.S., with nearly one hundred record lows
            reported in three days.
    In 1988 A winter-like storm developed in the Central Rockies.
            Snowfall totals in Utah ranged up to 15 inches at the
            Brian Head Ski Resort, and winds in Arizona gusted to
            59 mph at Show Low.
    In 1989 Thunderstorms developing along and ahead of a slow
            moving cold front produced large hail and damaging
            winds at more than fifty locations across the
            southeastern quarter of the nation, and spawned a
            tornado which injured eleven persons at Northhampton
            NC.
    In 1990 Low pressure produced heavy snow in central Maine and
            northern New Hampshire, with up to 8 inches reported
            in Maine.  A slow moving Pacific storm system produced
            18 to 36 inches of snow in the southwestern mountains
            of Colorado in three days.  Heavier snowfall totals
            included 31 inches at Wolf Creek Pass and 27 inches
            at the Monarch Ski Area.
