Historical Weather And Climate Facts For Today

NOVEMBER 7TH HISTORIC WEATHER EVENTS ...1892... A record low stage was set on the Ohio River at Clifty Creek, at 404.7 feet. (NWS Louisville) ...1940... The Galloping Gertie bridge at Tacoma WA collapsed in strong winds resulting in a six million dollar loss, just four months after the grand opening of the new bridge. The winds caused the evenly sized spans of the bridge to begin to vibrate until the central one finally collapsed. From that point on bridges were constructed with spans of varying size. (David Ludlum) ...1951... At 7 AM a blinding flash, a huge ball of fire, and a terrific roar occurred over parts of Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, caused by a disintregrating meteor. Windows were broken in and near Hinton OK by the concussion. (The Weather Channel) ...1996... A tobacco warehouse in Horse Cave (Hart County) lost its roof, while a furniture warehouse received major damage from an F0 tornado that was on the ground for 9 miles. Two lumber businesses received significant roof damage. Numerous sheds and carports were also destroyed. A scoreboard was down at a local high school. 15 residents received minor residential damage. In Hardyville (Hart County), a barn was demolished with 5 people inside sustaining injuries. None were hospitalized. Numerous additional barns and outbuildings were damaged and trees were down along the path as well. An F0 tornado touched down just northwest of Adairville (Logan County) and traveled around 10 miles northeast to just southwest of Auburn. As the tornado moved across the Logan County airport it did an estimated $500,000 worth of damage to airplanes. At least 5 airplanes were damaged beyond repair. An F0 tornado touched down briefly near Stowers (Simpson County). (NWS Louisville)
