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

 Today is Friday  November 26, 2004.
 This is the 331st day of the year, there are 35 days left.

 On this day...
    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.
