...ON THIS DATE IN WEATHER HISTORY...

In 1936, it was a record breaking hot day across portions of
northwest Kansas. Goodland reached its highest temperature ever in
the month of June at 109 degrees, Tribune tied its monthly record
at 107 degrees, and Colby set a record for the date but not the
month by also reaching 107 degrees.

In 1970, wind and rain, and hail up to seven inches deep, caused
more than five million dollars damage at Oberlin Kansas.

In 2011, a weak tornado was reported four miles southwest of Firstview,
Colorado with softball sized hail occurring south of Cheyenne Wells.
This was the first tornado of the season, which is unusually late in the
year for the Tri-State area.
