Winter Weather hangs on in 1947
You would think by this time in the calendar that winter weather would be history. Well, on this day in 1947, a storm produced heavy snow across Wisconsin with 10 inches reported in Gay Mills. While the storm downed power lines and damaged fruit and other trees, there were no serious accidents..
The storm was followed by the coldest weather of the month for the high plains regions and the Missouri Valley. Williston, North Dakota reported 21F for the morning low on May 28th, and the next morning Cheyenne, Wyoming reported in at 16F for the low. Weather stats from This Day in Weather History.
