 On this day...
    In 1939 A west coast hurricane moved onshore south of Los Angeles
            bringing unprecedented rains along the southern coast of
            California.  Nearly five and a half inches of rain
            drenched Los Angeles during a 24 hour period.  The
            hurricane caused two million dollars damage, mostly to
            structures along the coast and to crops, and claimed 45
            lives at sea.  "El Cordonazo" produced 5.66 inches of
            rain at Los Angeles and 11.6 inches of rain at Mount
            Wilson, both records for the month of September.
    In 1987 Hurricane Emily crossed the island of Bermuda during the
            early morning.  Emily, moving northeast at 45 mph,
            produced wind gusts to 115 mph at Kindley Field.  The
            thirty-five million dollars damage inflicted by Emily
            made it the worst hurricane to strike Bermuda since 1948.
            Parts of Michigan and Wisconsin experienced their first
            freeze of the autumn.  Snow and sleet were reported in
            the Sheffield and Sutton areas of northeastern Vermont at
            midday.
    In 1988 Low pressure off the Northern Pacific Coast brought rain
            and gale force winds to the coast of Washington State.
            Fair weather prevailed across most of the rest of the
            nation.
    In 1989 Twenty-three cities in the south central U.S. reported
            record low temperatures for the date, including Topeka KS
            with a reading of 33 degrees, and Binghamton NY with a
            low of 25 degrees.  Showers and thunderstorms in the
            southeastern U.S. drenched Atlanta GA with 4.87 inches of
            rain, their sixth highest total of record for any given
            day.
