Historical Weather And Climate Facts For Today
/////////////////////////////////////
MAY 13TH...HISTORIC WEATHER EVENTS
...1930...
A man was killed when caught in an open field during a hailstorm northwest
of Lubbock TX. It was the first, and perhaps the only, authentic death by
hail in U.S. weather records. (David Ludlum)
...1981...
A tornado 450 yards in width destroyed ninety percent of Emberson TX.
People did not see a tornado, but rather a wall of debris. Homes were
leveled, a man in a bathtub was hurled a quarter of a mile, and a 1500
pound recreational vehicle was hurled 500 yards. Miraculously no deaths
occurred in the tornado. (The Weather Channel)
...1998...
An F0 tornado cut a narrow path of 2 miles along Gilbert's
Creek (Mercer County) damaging 2 storage buildings and
uprooting 125 trees. Resulting debris blocked off most of
Oregon Road from US 127 to the Kentucky River where the
tornado lifted. Lightning struck the historic opera house in
Winchester (Clark County KY), heavily damaging it. (NWS Louisville)
...2002...
92mph winds blew through Scottsville in Allen County. (NWS Louisville)
