On this Day in Weather History...
In 1932, Los Angeles had its biggest snowstorm on record, with around 2 inches falling at the Civic Center. In 1987, a strong storm system over the Southern Plateau and the Southern Rockies produced 24 inches of snow at Colorado Springs. Twenty two inches of the snow fell in 24 hours, setting a January record.
WICHITA SETS 2-YEAR RAINFALL RECORD (1/11/2009)
As most, if not all, residents of South-Central Kansas are well aware, colossal rainfalls drenched South-Central Kansas in 2008. In fact, the 53.82 inches measured in 2008 at Wichita's Mid-Continent Airport broke the record of 50.48 inches set way back in 1951. This staggering rainfall enabled the Air Capital to set a 2nd rainfall record: Greatest 2-year total ever. (Archive of all Weather Stories)
