On This Day in Wx History
1987 – Squalls in the Lower Great Lakes Region and the Upper Ohio Valley produced 14 inches of snow at Snowshoe West Virginia, and nearly eight inches at Syracuse, New York. Eleven cities in the eastern U.S. reported record low temperatures for the date. Record lows included 21 degrees at Pinson, Alabama, 9 degrees at Syracuse, New York, and 8 degrees at Binghamton, New York. Gale force winds lash the Middle and Northern Atlantic Coast, and the strong northwesterly winds produced wind chill readings as cold as 30 degrees below zero. Winds gusting to 60 mph at Trumansburg, New York toppled a chimney onto a nearby truck.
