1981: Four days of heavy rain across northern Texas and southern Oklahoma came to an end. The heaviest rains fell in a band from southwest of Abilene TX to McAlester OK, with up to 26 inches reported north of Gainesville, in north central Texas. The heavy rains were the result of decaying Hurricane Norma, which also spawned thirteen tornadoes across the region. Seven deaths were attributed to the flooding.

1984: Dense fog contributed to a 118 vehicle accident on I-94, just south of Milwaukee WI. It was the seventh day of an eight day stretch of dense fog. At the time of the accident the visibility was reportedly close to zero.

1909: A major tornado outbreak spread from the northeast corner of Arkansas through much of Tennessee and into the northern parts of Alabama and Georgia. The worst tornado was an F3 that devastated the Tennessee communities of Stantonville and Pittsburg Landing. Debris from Shiloh National Military Park was carried for three miles. Two dozen people were killed in this tornado, with forty fatalities from the entire outbreak.

1966: A half mile wide F5 tornado in Iowa moved north northeast from Clarion to Belmond where a large section of town was devastated. About 109 homes were destroyed and 468 were damaged. Between Clarion and Belmond 27 farms were hit and several farm homes were leveled. The threatening skies forewarned a crowd at a homecoming parade and they successfully dispersed before the storm struck.
