An oppressive heat wave, which lasted as long as twenty-five consecutive days in interior Kent and Sussex Counties, gripped

the state after July 11th. A cold front brought temporary relief after the 18th in New Castle County. While the humidity levels

dropped to comfortable levels for a few days after the 18th, temperatures still reached into the 90s. The hottest day of the month

was the 15th when many records were set. High temperatures included 104F in Georgetown and Lewes, 103F in Odessa, 100F

in Pennyhill and Bridgeville and 99F at the Greater Wilmington Airport. Dew point temperatures on the 15th were into the 80s,

making apparent temperatures (heat index) feel well above 110F. The one heat related death occurred in Brandywine Hills as

an elderly woman with heart problems was found dead the morning of the 18th. The heat, especially on the 15th, caused the

death of 3.7 million chickens throughout the Delmarva Peninsula. (F?PH)

An intense heat wave affected northern Illinois from Wednesday July 12 through Sunday July 16. The heat wave tied or broke

several temperature records at Rockford and Chicago. But what set this heat wave apart from others was the extremely high

humidities. Dew point temperatures peaked in the lower 80s late Wednesday the 12th and Thursday the 13th and were generally

in the middle and upper 70s through the rest of the hot spell. The combined and cumulative effects of several days of high

temperatures, high humidity, intense July sunshine (100% possible sunshine recorded at O'Hare Airport in Chicago July 13) and

light winds took their toll. 583 people died as a result of the heat in Chicago and surrounding areas. Official temperatures at

Chicago's O'Hare International Airport were 7/12; minimum 73 maximum 97 (tied record), 7/13 minimum 81 (record) maximum

104 (record), 7/14 minimum 83 (record), maximum 100 (tied record), 7/15 minimum 75, maximum 98, 7/16 minimum 74,

maximum 93. The heat peaked on Thursday July 13. O'Hare had a high of 104 and a low of 81 for an average of 93, 20 degrees

above normal. (The all-time record high for Chicago is 105.) The heat index peaked at 119 at 1300 and 1700. At Midway Airport

the temperature hit 106. (Midway is not the official Chicago reporting station so the 106 did not become Chicago's official highest

temperature.) The heat index at Midway reached 125 at 1400 when the temperature was 103 and the dew point was 79. What

was really remarkable was that Meigs Field which sits on a small peninsula over the cool waters of Lake Michigan off the

Chicago lakefront reached 103 degrees with a heat index of 115. Rockford had high temperatures of 97, 98, 97 and 94 on the

12 through 15th, respectively. The minimum of 75 on the 14th was a record. The heat index peaked at 125 at 1800 pm on the

13th when the temperature was 98 with a dew point of 83!

Commonwealth Edison, which provides much of northern Illinois and virtually all of the Chicago metropolitan area with power,

had record demands for electricity on the 12th through the 14th. Power output was 18,234, 19,151 and 19,201 megawatts,

respectively. Transformers blew in the southwest suburbs near Joliet causing rolling power outages on the 13th and 14th. The

north side of Chicago also lost power as did the northwest suburb of Cary. Draw bridges over the Chicago River had to be hosed

down so they would operate and close properly. Several roads buckled from the heat. As many as 500 fire hydrants were opened

in Chicago causing loss of water pressure. The city of Chicago used a record 1.8 billion gallons of water on the 13th. The city's

water system has a capacity to pump 2 billion gallons a day.

There were over 580 fatalities attributed to the heat. Most of them occurred in the city of Chicago. Most of the deaths occurred

two to three days following the peak of the heat wave. Many were elderly people living alone in homes or apartments with no

air conditioning. Some had nailed windows shut and were afraid to go out because of crime in their neighborhoods. Emergency

officials found people in homes with room temperatures of 120 degrees or higher. Here is a break down of fatalities by county;

Lake County, 1 (Ingleside), Grundy County, 1 (Morris), Kane County, 7 (all in Aurora), Winnebago County, 5 (all in Rockford),

Will County, 1 (Joliet), Cook, 568. The information from Cook County was provided by the Cook County Medical Examiners

Office. 64 of the deaths occurred in suburban Cook County. 504 occurred in Chicago. The dates of the deaths are not known in

all cases. Many of the examinations occurred in the days following the heat wave, more occurred later as funeral home and

hospital records were checked. Heat was the primary cause of death in 75 of the cases and a secondary cause in the rest of the

deaths. Information on morbidity is being compiled by the Cook County Department of Health. An estimate on number of injuries

will be available later this year as an addition.

Moisture streamed north over the central United States during the 24 hours prior to this event. Surface dew point temperatures

were in the 65 -70 F. range. A strong southerly low level jet had also become established during the day with speeds at the 850

mb level in the 50 kt range. On the surface, two fronts were approaching Iowa. One was a warm front to the south of the state.

A cold front was moving in from the west. An upper level low pressure area was over north central Kansas during the early

afternoon hours. The air mass was quite unstable with lifted indices in the -5 to -7 C. range. The air was even more unstable

to the south of Iowa. Convective available potential energy (CAPE) values were around 2800 J-kg with helicity values around

-1

400 m -s by mid afternoon. Surface mesoscale analysis during the afternoon revealed strong moisture convergence into

2 -2

northwest Missouri and southwest Iowa. That is where the thunderstorms formed. During the mid to late afternoon, a line of

thunderstorms formed rapidly from southwest into central Iowa. These storms produced a few funnel clouds, but there was not

real threat of them touching down. During the early stages of development, lightning from one of the storms struck a house in

Atlantic. No fire was started, however electrical damage was reported. The freezing level on this day was quite high, in excess

of 13,500 feet MSL. As a result, hail was not a dominant feature with the storms. Spotty reports of hail between three-quarters

on an inch and nearly an inch in diameter were received, but most of the hail was marble-size or smaller. Wind became the major

problem with the storms. Within two hours of the initial onset of convection, the thunderstorm complex assumed a bow echo

configuration. This bow echo tracked across the entire state producing high winds and brief torrential rains. In Taylor County

of southwest Iowa. high winds in the Sharpsburg area downed trees onto a house. The trees crashed through the house and even

resulted in some foundation damage. Damage to the house was estimated between $50 thousand and $60 thousand. Near

Bedford, high winds downed a tree onto a house. One man was seriously injured as he was unable to get to shelter before the

tree fell through the house. He was still in the hospital the following day. Damage to the house was between $8 thousand and

$9 thousand. Other damage around the state was mainly tree and power line damage. There were spotty reports of roof damage,

such as in the Prairie City area of Jasper County and the Brooklyn area of Poweshiek County. A tractor-semitrailer was

overturned by the high winds on Interstate 80 near Newton. For the most part winds were around 60 mph with many of the

storms. A few of the storms produced brief stronger gusts in what appeared to be microburst activity. Considerable damage was

done in the What Cheer area in Keokuk County. There was some increase in the wind strength over the eastern counties of the

state as the storm system began to die out. Winds from the decaying storms reached 60 to 70 mph in several areas of east central

Iowa. One of the collapsing storms produced high winds west of Andrew in Jackson County. The winds picked up a 2 x 4 and

threw it through the side of a pick-up truck. Flooding was not a large problem except during the early stages of the storm systems

development. Heavy rainfall was reported in Taylor County. Two inches fell in 55 minutes time in New Market, while .90 inches

fell in 15 minutes in Bedford. The rainfall only resulted in bank full stages on the smaller streams. Minor flooding, mostly in

urban areas, was reported in Union County as the heavy rainfall moved through. It did not last long, nor did it cause much

damage.

Preliminarrowy information provided by State Climatologist Harry Hillaker, Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land

Stewardship, indicates statewide rainfall averaged 3.28 inches. This is about 79% of the normal. Most of the rain in July fell

during the first week of the month with the heaviest over the south central counties. Widespread rains occurred in this area on

the Fourth of July with some locations receiving rainfall amounts in the three to four inch range. The heavy rainfall resulted in

minor flooding along the Chariton and 102 river basins later in that week, as well as over parts of the Iowa river basin in central

Iowa. The flooding was very minor with little damage reported. Flood waters were generally less than one foot over the flood

stage and confined to agricultural lands for the most part. Rivers receded below flood stage within a few days as dry weather

moved in.

formed over the central sections around mid day. The storms moved east during the afternoon. A storm formed ahead of the

main line over Chickasaw County. This storm became severe as it produced a tornado. The tornado touched down south of New

Hampton where it destroyed one farm building and damaged a few others on one farmstead. Several trees were also taken down.

The tornado tracked across fields to the southeast of New Hampton and did not directly effect another farmstead. The tornado

dissipated south of Lawler.

A warm front extended southeast to northwest to the southwest of Iowa. The air mass was very unstable to the southwest of the

front with lifted indices in the -10 C range, but was capped. Thunderstorms fired on the cold side of the front. Favorable shear

in the upper air wind fields allowed some of the storms to become severe. Most of the severe weather occurred south of Iowa,

but one cell dropped three quarter to one inch diameter hail on Ringgold County before it moved southeast into Missouri.

A weak cold front moved southeast across Iowa. The air mass was quite unstable, but at the same time capped by warm

temperatures aloft. The freezing level was around 14,300 MSL. One cell was able to develop over north central Iowa. It moved

southeast across Franklin, Wright, and Hamilton Counties. The storm became severe and produced hail up to golf ball and

slightly larger in size. Reports indicated the hail covered the ground in a few areas. One area was the area north of Jewell. Hail

of golf ball size fell north of Ellsworth, breaking out the window in one house. A window was also broken out of a state police

car as well. The damage to crops was serious. A survey of the area revealed an area about 12 miles long and two to three miles

wide from east of Webster City south to near Ellsworth suffered substantial damage. About one quarter of the crop was

destroyed with damage well in excess of $1 million. The WSR 88D pictures indicated a strong circulation in the cell. About that

time a funnel cloud was reported southeast of Rowan in Wright County. Later as the storm passed through Hamilton County,

another funnel cloud was observed near Blairsburg. The thunderstorm collapsed about as quickly as it formed. It dissipated over

Story County.

Intense heat overspread Iowa on the 12th and lasted well into the evening of the 14th. Dew point temperatures ranged from the

upper 70s to the middle 80s through much of the time. The highest dew point readings were over the east half of the state. Winds

remained light through the period and were generally less than 10 mph. High temperatures during the period were generally in

the 98 -108 F. range. The highest known temperature was 109 in the Council Bluffs area. Most of the west half of the state

broke the century mark on the 13th, and nearly every station by the 14th. Overnight low temperatures struggled to reach the

middle 70s, with some areas remaining around 80. The highest heat indices were in the east half of Iowa, where the higher dew

point temperatures were. The highest reading came from Cedar Rapids on the 13, with a heat index of 131 by late afternoon.

Three people died from the heat, one in Des Moines, one in Marshalltown, and a third in Burlington. A 95 year old woman died

in her home as the temperature in the house climbed above the 110 mark. She had no air conditioning or fans and the windows

were closed. In Marshalltown a 71-year-old man died in his unairconditioned home. In a similar way, a 37-year-old man died

in his unairconditioned apartment in downtown Burlington on the 13th. A significant loss occurred in livestock. Statewide

figures indicate the losses approaching the $5-$6 million range, however some of that was just outside the scope of my area.

Losses were placed at 4,000 head of cattle, 370 hogs, 1,250,000 chickens, and 250,000 turkeys. On one Webster County farm

alone 250,000 laying hens perished on the 2nd day of the heat. Another egg producer had 1.5 million laying hens on two farms,

one in Winterset, the other in Guthrie Center. They reported a loss of at least 500,000 hens. Disposal became a serious problem

as rendering plants were overwhelmed. In addition to problems caused to humans and livestock, there were numerous heat

buckles reported on streets and highways around the state. Early indications were there was little in the way of crop damage.

The combination of light winds and extremely high dew point temperatures helped keep the crops from stressing too much.

Heavy dew would form overnight that would last well into the early afternoon hours. F95PH, M71PH, M37PH

with lifted indices as low as -24 C. In spite of this, there remained a 1 -4 degree cap. Cooler air aloft moved into Iowa on the

15th. Although CAPE values were only around 2000 J-kg , thunderstorms erupted ahead of the cold front. There was very little

in the way of sever weather. High winds of 94 MPH struck the town of Atlantic. Over $30 thousand damage was done to one

building as the roof was completely torn off. There was other damage around town including downed trees. The storm in the

Atlantic area resulted from a storm forming at the initial onslaught of convection. Another storm produced high winds and tree

damage in Ringgold County at Tingley. Most areas reported winds of 30 to 45 MPH with some small hail reported. The freezing

level was very high yet, 15,300 feet MSL, so hail was not a great threat. WSR-88D observations indicated VIL values in excess

of 80 Kg-m occurred several times. In spite of this, only small hail fell beneath these cells as the hail was melting before

reaching the ground. Severe weather also occurred in Fayette County in the Elgin area. Trees were downed southwest of the

city. High winds also downed trees east of Clermont. Rainfall was heavy in several areas. Typically, one to two inch amounts

were common. A few areas received as much as three inches of rain in just over an hour. Urban flooding was reported in several

counties. The damage was minor however. Rural area did not experience any significant flooding as dry farm fields quickly

absorbed the rainfall. Lightning struck a new house in West Des Moines. The lightning blew a whole in the roof of the house

and caused about $20 thousand in damage. Another lightning strike occurred in Fayette County at Elgin. Lightning struck a tree

there which fell onto the porch of a house. Damage was fairly minor.

Warm, moist, and unstable air streamed into Iowa ahead of an advancing cold front. In fact, the warm front passed north of the

state during the morning, placing Iowa near the passage of the triple point in the system. Thunderstorms erupted well ahead of

the cold front, in the warm sector, during the afternoon. A few of the storms became strong. Severe weather occurred in Tama

County. Sixty mph winds swept through an area south of Lincoln. Golf ball-size hail pelted Tama County about six miles south

of Guthrie Center causing considerable crop damage. Hail three-quarters of an inch in diameter damaged crops in the Traer area.

Further east a few storms became severe over Benton and Cedar Counties. Trees were downed in several locations. Damage

was done by high winds to a barn on one farmstead new West Branch. A shed roof was also damaged. High winds destroyed

A weak frontal boundary sagged slowly south into Iowa during the afternoon of the 22nd. Warm and unstable air was ahead of

the boundary, aiding in the development of thunderstorms during the mid to late afternoon hours. The storms were severe as they

crossed northeast Iowa. Hail three-quarters of an inch in diameter covered the ground two inches deep east of Marble Rock.

Other reports in the area indicated hail up to six inches deep 45 minutes after the storm in a few areas farther southeast of Marble

Rock. Crop damage was extensive in the area. Another area of extensive crop damage was in the Plainfield area. Hail larger

than tennis ball in size fell there destroying many crops. In actuality, the storm cut a swath nearly 25 miles long and ranged in

width from one to as much as five miles wide in places from east of Marble Rock to Plainfield. The hail storm affected parts of

four counties; Chickasaw, Butler, Floyd, and Bremer. At least 6,000 acres of crops were totally wiped out with another 25,000

to 30,000 acres damaged. Hail damage was estimated near $3 million. Farther to the south, in Monroe County, golf ball size

hail pelted areas northeast of Moravia. There were numerous reports of pea to marble-size hail across northeast Iowa as well.

The storms exited the state as they deposited golf ball-size hail in Rickardsville. Along with the hail came reports of gusty winds.

For the most part the winds were in the 30 to 40 mph range. Spotty areas did report winds strong enough to down trees and

power lines. Thunderstorms produced heavy rainfall as they moved across the Ottumwa area. The heavy rainfall caused urban

flooding and sewer backups around the city. Lightning struck a garage in Fayette County at Oelwein. A small fire began, but

was quickly put out. Damage was minimal.

A vary dynamic weather pattern was in place across Iowa. The air mass was very unstable with total total indices of 61, K indices

over 30, and helicity values over 600 m-s . Soundings at 1200 UTC already indicated lifted indices of -7 C. Moisture pooling

2 -2

was taking place ahead of a windshift line which extended north to south across central Nebraska at sunrise. Dew point values

rose to around 80 F. over most of Iowa in the morning. A strong cap was in place with 700 mb temps nearing +15 C. This

held convection to a minimum. Thunderstorms had formed the previous night across South Dakota and advanced into southern

Minnesota. They slid southeast and moved into north central Iowa during the late morning hours. Golf ball-size hail pelted

Worth County northeast of Northwood. A short time later a second cell dropped dime-size hail on the area. The storms advanced

southeast producing hail and gusty winds. Most of the activity was just below severe limits. When the storms reached Clayton

County, dime size hail was reported in Luana. Meanwhile, in Garnavillo high winds were a problem. Several trees and numerous

power lines were downed in the city as the gust front passed. In addition to the first cluster of storms that slid southeast, a line

of thunderstorms formed quickly on its heels ahead of the trough/windshift line. These storms quickly became severe in the

unstable air mass and joined with the aforementioned cluster of storms. Once the storms became severe, they produced

considerable damage. Hail up to baseball-size, very high winds, and tornadoes resulted. There were several small tornadoes and

one gustnado produced by the line. Of the more significant tornadoes, one tracked across Buchanan and Delaware Counties and

caused damage to many out buildings. The tornado struck a few farmsteads directly and damaged many others. Considerable

damage was reported along its path. One house was destroyed, two others sustained about $25 thousand damage each, five others

sustained about $20 thousand damage, and a mobile home was destroyed worth $10 thousand. A grain elevator was struck near

Lamont with damage placed to it at $500 thousand. A total of 19 farmsteads sustained damage in the county. Crop damage by

the tornado was also severe with damage described as if "someone went through the fields with a Weedeater". Two head of cattle

were killed near Lamont when the barn they were in collapsed. Another tornado that was on the ground for a significant length

of time tracked across Clinton County. Other significant tornadoes struck Scott and Muscatine Counties. Straight line winds

caused considerable damage in Delaware County. There were numerous reports of livestock killed or injured by fallen barns.

Three hogs were crushed on a farm near Hopkinton for example. Damage from straight line winds alone in the county were

placed near two and one half million dollars. Damage was very extensive around the Hopkinton area with many farmsteads

affected and some nearly wiped out. Estimates from the entire Quad Cities metro area range to around $5 million. There was

also considerable damage in Jones County from high winds. Wind gusts of at least 85 MPH destroyed 24 mobile homes and

three permanent homes in Monticello. There was also damage reported to several other houses and businesses in the area. Other

wind damage in the Monticello area included three silos destroyed, two large barns downed, two machine sheds, a corn crib, and

six open sheds. Three head of cattle were killed as one of the barns collapsed on them. In another incident, a horse stable was

blown down by the winds. One horse was killed as the stable toppled down on it. Also, in Monticello, a man was injured as high

winds downed a tree on top of his car. Reports indicated the total property damage in the Monticello area were at least $1.8

million and were expected to top the $2 million mark. Estimates of crop damage due to the wind totaled close to $1 million

across Jones County. Cedar County, winds of 90 to 95 MPH in close proximity to a tornado in the area destroyed one house and

several buildings north of Atalissa. The tornado itself hit one farmstead north of the Atalissa area. Reports indicated food was

sucked out of the refrigerator and boards were taken out of loaded grain wagons. When the house was hit, a letter from the attic

was picked up shortly before 1900CST. The letter was retrieved at 1940CST; 40 miles from its original location in the Quad

Cities. There were numerous reports of small rope tornadoes around the Lowden area. Two are included in this report. The

tornado northwest of town touched down briefly in an open field. There were actually three separate touchdowns from one parent

cloud within a period of several minutes. A local network of spotters in the county observed 24 funnel clouds. In addition to

the tornadoes and winds, hail was a major problem. There were numerous reports of one to two-inch diameter hail. There were

also several reports of baseball-size hail. In Clinton County, Grand Mound and DeWitt were pelted with baseball-size hail causing

considerable damage. The airport at Clinton sustained damage by baseball-size hail as well. In Calamus, baseball-size hail fell

on the city. The hail in combination with the wind damaged cars, knocking out windows. Windows were also knocked out of

several buildings in the city. Hail also caused considerable crop damage in east central Iowa. Five thousand acres of corn and

soybeans were totally destroyed, 10,000 acres slightly damaged, 50 hogs killed, and 10 head of cattle killed in a three county

area. The Governor declared Buchanan, Delaware, and Jones Counties disaster areas. Damage and losses totaled into the

millions. Earlier in the afternoon, lightning struck a barn in Winneshiek County

IOWA, Central Con'd

near Castalia. The barn was a total loss as it burned to the ground.

A fairly strong cold front sank south across Iowa during the day. The frontal system had significant moisture to work with as

the remnants of tropical storm Dean had already reach the state. The air mass ahead of the front was very unstable as afternoon

temperatures rose into the lower 90s with dew point temperatures in the middle 70s. CAPE values by late afternoon were around

3000 J-kg with lifted indices around -9 C. Thunderstorm erupted on the cold side of the front. The initial windshift was very

-1

shallow. The storms quickly became multicellular with very little in the way of severe weather associated with them. They did

produce copious amounts of rainfall with two to four inch amounts reported in some areas. No significant flooding occurred as

the soil was extremely dry. One storm was severe as it moved across Boone County. Winds of at least 60 MPH nearly blew a

car off of a highway northwest of Boone. High winds also moved into the city of Boone. Another severe thunderstorms moved

into Muscatine County. High winds blew the roof off of a building east of Fairport and downed several trees and power lines.

A house also sustained considerable roof damage. Due to the unique construction, damage was placed at between $60 thousand

and $70 thousand to the house. As thunderstorms moved through Kossuth County, lightning struck a tree outside a house in

Whittemore. The tree was downed and nails popped out of the drywall in the house.

A thunderstorm that originated over western Tennessee produced sporadic reports of wind damage. The storm entered the

southwest corner of Kentucky near Fulton, then tracked across Graves County before reaching the Illinois border a few miles

west of Paducah. Damage was mainly to trees and power lines. The worst damage was in and near Fulton, where two people were

injured when a tree fell on their car. Cars and houses in and around Fulton were damaged by falling limbs. A wind gust to 60

mph was reported in West Paducah by tower personnel at Barkley Regional Airport. United States Routes 60 and 62 were both

blocked by fallen trees a few miles west of Paducah. A second shorter-lived severe thunderstorm developed along the Tennessee

border south of Murray. This storm moved north across Marshall County into southern Livingston County. The worst damage

was in the Gilbertsville area, where a possible microburst caused a well defined damage path. The storm struck a popular camping

area on a holiday weekend, resulting in one injury and lots of damaged motor homes. A camper received minor cuts and bruises

when a tree limb fell on a tent. Trees and property were damaged in the microburst area, which was several hundred yards wide.

A 38-hour period of extremely hot and humid weather in mid-July took its toll on humans and animals alike. The heat was

caused by strengthening of the Bermuda high, extending from the surface to the upper levels of the atmosphere. The most life-

threatening period of the heat wave occurred during the afternoon of the 15th, when temperatures ranged from 98 to 103 but heat

indices were between 115 and 129. For the entire period, heat indices were at or above 90 at most locations. On the evening

of the 15th, indices exceeded 100 until around 2 am, when outflow from a strong thunderstorm cooled and dried the surface,

dropping temperatures and heat indices to the low to mid 70s.

In the Baltimore area, there were a reported six deaths from the excessive heat. One man was found in a van which he lived, in

Hampden. The Medical Examiner's office reported two other deaths in the state during the same period. Thirty-one people were

A fast moving sqaull line of severe thunderstorms caused numerous reports of damaging winds in the western two-thirds of

Massachusetts and more scattered reports of damage farther east. The storms were part of a major mesoscale convective complex

(derecho) which had tracked across the Great Lakes region and New York state during the early morning hours. The line of

storms entered Berkshire County at about 0700 local time and raced to the southeast portion of the state, including Cape Cod and

the islands by around 0930. There was widespread damage to trees and power lines in Berkshire, Franklin, Hampshire, and

Hampden Counties. in Burkshire, a woman was injured in Pittsfield when a tree fell on her car. A wind gust of 92 mph was

reported from the town of Otis, where a woman was killed by electrocution while standing in wet grass after an electric power

line fell and caught fire. A tree fell on a house in North Adams and a wall of a mall was blown out in Lenoxdale. In Franklin,

Hampshire, and Hampden Counties, some of the most severe damage occurred in the hill towns or in the higher elevations.

Widespread power outages and roads blocked by fallen trees prompted authorities to declare states of emergency in five towns,

including Greenfield, Huntington, Ashfield, Conway, and Middlefield. About 30,000 electric customers lost power and a power

company in western Massachusetts reported outages in 57 out of 59 of the towns that they serve. Thousands of people remained

without power more than 48 hours after the storms moved through, especially in the rural towns which took the brunt of the high

winds. In Holyoke, 50 people were left homeless after winds gusting to 70 mph blew the roof off of their apartment building.

Three people were injured in Deerfield after their hot air balloon was caught by the winds and went spinning out of control for

five miles before crashing into a tree. In Charlemont, a six-year-old boy was injured by lightning while talking on the telephone

during the storm. Falling trees and tree limbs damaged houses, barns, and automobiles throughout the area. Scattered wind

damage and power outages occurred in the central and eastern portions of the state. Several thousand power outages were

reported from central Massachusetts. A peak gust of 59 mph was recorded at the Worcester Municipal Airport at 0804 local time

while a peak gust to 85 mph was reported from Upton, just to the southeast of Worcester. In northern Worcester County, a peak

gust to 72 mph was recorded at the Fitchburg Airport. Generally, though, most wind gusts were reported to be in the range of

50 to 65 mph. The Blue Hill Observatory, at an elevation of 635 feet in Milton recorded a peak gust to 63 mph. The intensity

of the storms was diminishing upon reaching coastal sections of the state, but even Menemsha on Martha's Vineyard recorded

a gust to 58 mph and many tree limbs were reported blown down throughout the greater New Bedford area.

County-wide 13 1520EDT-

13 1600EDT 2 0 7 0 Thunderstorm Winds

Thunderstorm winds did widespread tree damage across all but extreme southeast Roscommon County, with well over 100,000

trees down. Most of the trees brought down were the largest and healthiest, as they had the highest tops and heaviest foliage.

Widespread damage to residences, cottages, garages, vehicles was caused by falling trees, while the winds damaged and

destroyed docks and boats on the lee shores of all county lakes. Consumers Power Company estimated over 100 miles of phone

and power lines down in the county and electrical service remained out to thousands of homes and cottages for periods ranging

from a few days to over a week. Average wind gusts in most areas were estimated in the 65 to 80 mph range which is consistent

with the reports from the Lyon Twp supervisor using a calibrated anemometer. Near catastrophic damage was done by unusually

intense microbursts in three areas, where wind gusts were estimated in the 85 to 100 mph range: the Flag Point area (worst

localized damage) on the east shore of Higgins Lake, Comfort and Detroit Points, on the west shore of Higgins Lake, and the

communities of Artesia Beach and St. Helen, along the south and southeast shores of Lake St. Helen.

An 11-year old female, accompanied by four other family members, was killed when the pontoon boat she was in flipped while

returning to its dock; she became trapped under the craft and rescue efforts were delayed by blocked roads in the area. (F11O)

A man and wife, riding ORV trails east of the community of St. Helen, were stranded by trees brought down by thunderstorm

winds. Subsequently, the man suffered a heart attack. Because of the blocked trails, the wife was forced to walk several miles

to a local cottage to obtain assistance. Rescue efforts were hampered by hundreds of downed trees blocking trails, and local

residents assisted with chain saws to get the EMT vehicle back to the husband, who was dead when they arrived. (M46O)

southeast of West Branch, to near Skidway Lake. Damage to property was not nearly as extensive nor pronounced. There were

a few reports of roof damage due to falling trees. Trees also fell on and damaged a few vehicles, including a sport utility vehicle

and tractor seven miles northwest of West Branch. Numerous wheat fields along the primary storm tracks were partially flattened

shortly after crossing the southeast shore of Lake Ogemaw. Several hundred trees, many of which up to 30 inches in diameter,

were brought down, with secondary damage done to homes, cottages, and vehicles where trees fell on them. Several docks were

destroyed and boats damaged around Lake Ogemaw.

A powerfull line of thunderstorms swept across southeast Michigan from northwest to southeast late in the afternoon on the 13th.

An 18-year-old man was killed near Harbor Beach in Huron County when a barn that he was working in collapsed. A 50-year-

old man suffered a broken leg when a tree limb fell on him near Croswell, in Sanilac County. The strong winds produced

widespread power outages. Detroit Edison reported that 410,000 customers lost power in southeast Michigan due to the storm,

which was the highest total for any storm since July, 1991. In addition, the winds produced widespread damage to trees and man-

made structures. A State Farm Insurance Agent estimated that total damage claims of over $2 million would be filed. AAA

Michigan expected to recieve claims from homeowners of over $3 million. The United States Coast Guard received dozens of

distress calls as the storms moved across lakes Huron, Saint Clair and Erie, but no injuries or deaths were reported. (M18BU).

by incredibly high humidity, with dew points near 80 degrees during the afternoon on the 14th. To make matters worse, much

of the area was without air conditioning, since severe thunderstorms on the 13th resulted in widespread power outages. Detroit

Thunderstorm wind gusts as high as 70 kts (80 mph) were observed as the squall line moved through the region. Many trees and

power lines were blown down, causing extensive and widespread power and cable TV outages. Wind damage to boats, vehicles,

buildings, and antennas also occurred, either directly or by falling trees. The hardest hit area extended from around

Brainarrowrowd in Crow Wing County to near Grand Rapids in Itasca County, then northeast across the Iron Range of central

St. Louis County, including the cities of Hibbing, Virginia, and Aurora. In some communities, trucks with plows were needed

to clear roads made impassable by fallen trees. Thousands of electric customers were without power for at least 24 hours

following the storm. The general manager for the Hibbing Public Utilities said it was the worst windstorm in at least 10 years.

Other damage in Hibbing included construction signs and portable toilets that were tipped over. A fabric storage building was

lifted by the wind, and an awning was ripped off the Pella Windows store. Trees touching power lines caused a few small fires.

Other nearby communities suffering large numbers of downed trees and power outages were Kelly Lake, Chisholm, Nashwauk,

Keewatin, and Leetonia. In Grand Rapids, power to half the city was out for hours and hundreds of power lines were down.

Highway 169 south of the city was completely blocked by fallen trees. In Virginia, the Boyer True Value Hardware and Lumber

a little farther south than the previous day. Brainerd received three-quarters inch diameter hail, otherwise, damaging winds were

again the primary feature of this system. Some structural damage occurred, due either directly to the wind or to falling trees.

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources estimated nearly 200,000 acres of timber were destroyed by the storms of July

13 and 14. The estimate was based partly on aerial photography. The area of downed trees extended from west of Itasca State

Park in Clearwater County, through Hubbard, Cass, and Itasca Counties, across the south half of St. Louis County. The DNR

estimated that 6.5 million trees more than 35 feet high were tipped over, broken off, or knocked flat. The value of the timber lost

or damaged was estimated at $22.5 million.

Trees up to four and one-half feet in diameter were blown down in Clay and Becker Counties. Numerous roofs blown off houses

in the town of Hawley in Clay County. Tree damage was extensive at the Hawley golf course. Five boy scouts camping in tents

and cabins at Many Point Lake Scout Camp near Ponsford were injured by falling trees. Two barns were destroyed at a chicken

farm near Lake Park. Some homes were without electricity for up to a week. Over one thousand trees blown down at Itasca State

Park in southern Clearwater County. One camper injured when a tree fell on her tent. Large trees down in Clarissa, Eagle Bend

and Browerville areas of Todd County. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) estimated nearly 129,000 total

acres of timber were destroyed by the storms of July 12-14. This estimate was based partly on aerial photography. The area of

downed trees extended primarily across southern Clearwater, southeast Mahnomen, northwest Hubbard and northern Becker

Counties. The DNR estimated that 5.2 million trees were blown down, tipped over or broken off. The appraised value of the

timber lost or damaged was estimated at $15.5 million . This amount of timber would have been worth about a third of a billion

dollars after having been cut, milled, sold and made into finished products. Only about half of the timber damaged was expected

to be salvaged.

A huge snowpack and warm temperatures during late June and early July led to unprecedented snowmelt flooding in the Walker

River and Mono Lake drainages. Small streams in the headwaters of these basins in both Lyon County, Nevada and Mono

County California caused significant flooding of homes, roads and campgrounds beginning in late June. A flood

NEVADA Cont'd

warning was in effect for these streams between July 9th and 12th. The West Walker River above Topaz Lake in Mono County

California rose above flood stage on June 25th and crested one foot above flood stage on July 9th, the highest stage recorded

there since December 1937. Flood warnings for this portion of the river were in effect from June 25th through July 12th. The

river caused significant flooding of lowlands and agricultural lands in this area, which included the towns of Walker, Coleville

and Topaz, California. Due to the high inflows, Topaz lake filled July 6th. As outflow capacity from the lake is severely limited,

it was feared that the lake would rise to dangerous levels. So, levees there were breached, causing the entire flow of the West

Walker to flow around Topaz Lake. This prompted issuance of a flood warning for this reach of the west Walker in Lyon County

Nevada which continued in effect through July 16th. Moderate to major flooding occurred near the towns of Smith and

Wellington in Lyon County Nevada during this period. No warnings were issued for the East Walker River. However, moderate

lowland flooding of rural roads and pasturelands occurred from late June through mid-July both above and below Bridgeport

reservoir in Mono County California. A flood warning for the mainstem of the Walker River was issued on June 29th when the

river went above the unofficial 7-foot flood level at Yerington. It remained above flood level in the Mason Valley through July

20th when it fell below the unofficial flood level of nine feet at Wabuska. The river crested over two feet above flood level on

the 12th at Yerington, and 1.8 feet above flood level at Wabuska on the 13th. Unofficially, these were the highest stages and

flows recorded on the Walker River since records began in 1902, exceeding the old record set in July 1906. The flooding on the

mainstem Walker was the most extensive in history, causing $6 million in crop losses in Lyon County with an estimated 6,000

acres of agricultural land flooded. Bank erosion was extensive along the river and many levees failed, adding to the area flooded.

There was about $250 thousand dollars damage to homes, businesses, roads and bridges in Lyon County. Seventeen homes were

damages by flooding in the Yerington/Mason area, with many more surrounded by water but protected by sandbags. Many roads

were washed out by the flood waters leaving areas inaccessible throughout the month of July.

An oppressive heat wave gripped most of New Jersey. It climaxed on the 15th as almost every location reported record breaking

heat. The dew point temperatures, reached into the 80s across southern New Jersey, an almost unheard of phenomena. This,

combing with sweltering temperatures produced an apparent temperature (Heat Index) of 115 degrees in Pomona (Atlantic

County). The Heat Index peaked at 129 in Philadelphia. The heat wave was broken for the northern half of the state the night

of the 15th as a backdoor cold front helped trigger a complex of severe thunderstorms. Relief for the southern half of the state

had to wait for a second cold front to move through the evening of the 18th.

Nine people died because of the heat. Heat related deaths were reported in Gloucester (2), Mercer (2), Middlesex (1), Ocean (3)

and Sussex (1) Counties. Often the people who died were in poor health and had inadequate ventilation. Nevertheless, one

person died in Gloucester County while working on a barge, while another died while hiking in Wawayanda State Park in Sussex

County. Hospitals treated more than 100 persons for heat exhaustion.

Record breaking high temperatures on the 15th included 104F in Newark, 103 F in East Millstone and Philadelphia, 101 F in

Cape May, New Brunswick, Chatham, Mount Holly and Millville, 100 F in Pomona and Trenton, 98 F in Newton and 97 F in

Wantage. The excessive heat caused record demand to be reached by the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland Interconnection

Association on July 14th and almost every New Jersey Utility on the 15th. The heat also took its toll on poultry as a 20 percent

drop in chicken egg production was caused by the excessive heat. (M49BO), (M59CA), (F90PH), (M78PH), (M79PH), (??OT),

One of the most devastating severe weather outbreaks to hit eastern New York this century occurred on the morning of July 15th.

A long lived squall line known as a derecho crossed eastern New York during the early morning hours. Extensive tree damage

occurred across the area with the Adirondacks being the hardest hit. Damage estimates from the Department of Environmental

Conservation indicated that some 900,000 acres of forest were damaged with 125,000 acres of timber in the Adirondack Park

sustaining moderate to severe damage. The timber damage is estimated at 1 billion board feet with an estimated value of $204

million. Five deaths and eleven injuries occurred with this event. Most of the deaths and injuries were a result of trees falling

on campers in the Adirondacks. Thirty-one hikers and campers had to be removed from the Adirondacks by helicopter as their

path out of the woods was blocked. Extensive power outages occurred across eastern New York with 230,000 customers left

without power. Livestock deaths were also reported with over 100 sheep, cattle or hogs killed. Times used during this event were

estimated due to the very rapid storm movement which exceeded 60 miles an hour. (F43O,M39O,F60O,F10O,F72V)

A line of severe thunderstorms (a derecho) roared south from Ontario and Michigan across Lake Erie and on shore at 50 mph

crossing all of northern Ohio except the extreme northwest counties. Widespread wind damage occurred as winds gusted to 70

mph in many areas. Local wind gusts reached nearly 100 mph. Winds were measured at 88 mph in Avon (Lorain County) and

Tiffin (Seneca), 87 mph in Stow (Summit), and estimated at 90 mph in western Geauga County. Numerous trees and limbs were

downed, some on power lines, vehicles, and structures. It took days for some communities to clear the downed trees. Electricity

was out in many areas into Friday morning, the 14th. A few areas went without power up to five days which caused the loss of

food and other items requiring cooling as well as a serious inconvenience due to the ongoing heat wave. The roof was blown off

an apartment complex in Elyria (Lorain County). The roof of a home in Ruggles Township (Ashland) was partially blown off.

A 2,400 square foot roof of a farm building was blown off in Tully Township (Marion) and the roof was blown from a lumber

yard in Mansfield (Richland). The shell of a church under construction was destroyed in Euclid (Cuyahoga). A barn was blown

over in Oak Harbor (Ottawa) and the roof was blown from two barns in Holmes County where a silo was also blown over. The

wall of a warehouse in Canton (Stark) was blown over and a wall was blown out of the Sinclair City Building in Myers Lake

Village (Stark). Crop damage occurred in a number of areas, mainly from corn and other standing crops being blown down. A

37-year-old man was killed in Guilford Township (Medina) at a campground when a two foot diameter tree crashed through an

outbuilding and struck him in the head. The nine other people in the building had hardly a scratch. A 71-year-old Franklin

Township (Ashland) man was killed when struck by a falling tree while he was on his riding mower. Two other injuries were

reported in Seville (Medina) from people struck by falling trees. A 28-year-man was injured when his truck struck a tree that was

blown down in front of him on Sandusky County Road 175. Several people were in vehicles crushed by falling trees including

a police officer in Elyria (Lorain) but were not injured. M37CA M71OU

limbs up to four inches were downed and a windmill was severely damaged 14 miles southeast of Waynoka. Severe

thunderstorm winds also derailed 20 railroad cars along a one mile stretch of track five miles northeast of Waynoka.

Lightning from the thunderstorms ignited two fires in Woods County. One mile northeast of Alva lightning struck a brick

Isolated thunderstorms developed in northwest Oklahoma during early evening on the 23rd. Within a few hours a second area

of numerous thunderstorms began to develop rapidly in southwest Oklahoma. The thunderstorms spread into central portions

of the state during the evening and many evolved into severe straight-line wind producing thunderstorms with distinctive bow-

echo radar signatures. In summary, wind gusts to 97 mph, hail up to three-inch diameter, and three tornados were reported during

this event. By far the most damaging storm of the night occurred in Oklahoma County as a severe thunderstorm with straight-line

winds up to 97 mph moved through central Oklahoma and the Oklahoma City metro area between 2300 and midnight CST on

the 23rd (midnight to 0100 am CDT on the 24th). As the storm approached western sections of the metro area, it began to cause

significant damage in Canadian County. In El Reno a metal awning was destroyed, and in Yukon trees were downed, one onto

a mobile home. The courthouse in Yukon suffered major roof damage which resulted in flooding of the offices inside. In

Mustang, winds were measured at 82 to 92 mph. Two carports were destroyed, light poles were downed, and major tree and

fence damage occurred. When the storm reached western Oklahoma County, wind speeds approached 100 mph. At the Weather

Service Office at Will Rogers Airport in southwest Oklahoma City, winds were sustained at 36 to 70 mph from 2324CST to

2353CST. Gusts ranged from 58 to 96 mph, with a peak of 96 mph at 2339CST. Damage throughout the county was extensive,

with the heaviest damage in southern and western Oklahoma City. Dollar estimates of damage alone (not including clean-up

costs or lost revenue) topped $6.5 million. Cleanup costs likely added an additional $2 million to the total. One-fifth of the city's

traffic signals were damaged, about 100 in all; and an estimated 175,000 homes lost power in the Oklahoma City metro area,

many for several days. Up to

OKLAHOMA, Western, Central, and Southeastern Cont'd

20,000 people were still without electricity the evening of the 26th, and electrical service was not completely restored until the

28th, five days after the storm. One employee of the electric company was killed while working on a high voltage line. At the

Will Rogers Airport, several windows were knocked out of the observation tower and the Weather Service Office at 2328CST.

Windows were also broken out of numerous cars. At Wiley Post Airport eight hangars sustained significant roof damage, for

an estimated $1 million damage. An airplane was also turned 45 degrees from its original position. A building was destroyed

near the 2000th block of Airport Road. Wind speeds at Tinker Air Force Base in Del City (a southeastern suburb of Oklahoma

City) reached 97 mph, the highest measured wind speed of the event. Tinker Air Force Base suffered extensive damage to

windows, roofs, and equipment stored in hangars. Nearby Rose State College also suffered significant roof and window damage

valued at $10 thousand. The Oklahoma State Fairgrounds sustained over almost $1 million damage to signs and buildings. The

greatest single cost was the bubble roof of the International Trade Center which collapsed during the storm. Replacement of the

roof and repair of the building cost $746 thousand. A paper warehouse was heavily damaged when an outside concrete-block

wall collapsed due to the severe winds. Damage to the warehouse and contents was estimated at $1 million. University Hospital

in downtown Oklahoma City received $150 thousand damage: $70 thousand to a Care-flight helicopter and $80 thousand to the

windows and roof of the hospital itself. The roof collapsed on four units of the Western Oaks Apartments at 7416 NW 23rd St,

and a brick wall was blown down at 23rd and Vandament. Part of the roof of a Post Office collapsed at SW 57th and Agnew.

A mobile home on the 5200th block of Peniel was blown onto its side, a mobile home on the 9000th block of NW 10th lost half

of its roof, and a house lost one-quarter of its roof at 9717 Westlake. Two homes at SW 59th and May and a Pizza Hut at SW

82nd and Pennsylvania suffered significant roof damage. At SW 74th and Pennsylvania, a greenhouse was destroyed and gas

pumps were overturned. Roof and gas pump damage was also reported at SW 74th and May. In Moore in northern Cleveland

County, the east face of Westmoore High School was stripped away by the severe thunderstorm winds. Damage was estimated

at $25,000. Many homes in Moore suffered roof and structural damage, including parts of walls blown off the second story of

one house. Ten blocks of power poles were downed along Santa Fe south of 4th on the Moore/Oklahoma City line. Sign and

tree damage throughout Oklahoma and northern Cleveland Counties was too extensive to list. Over 200 trees were twisted or

uprooted at the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds alone. Only two known injuries were attributed to the storm as it moved through

the metro area. An elderly couple driving on Santa Fe south of 4th Street in Moore (Cleveland County) was injured by a falling

utility pole. Both were treated and released by a local hospital. Elsewhere in central Oklahoma, severe thunderstorm winds in

Pottawatomie County downed two-inch limbs in Pink and felled numerous trees and power lines in Tecumseh. In Shawnee, also

in Pottawatomie County, winds estimated at 70 mph downed many limbs up to three inches. Severe thunderstorm winds

estimated at 80 mph in northern Hennessey in Kingfisher County uprooted or snapped numerous 14 to 20-inch trees and power

lines. Several residential and business roofs were damaged or removed. Glass windows and doors were broken throughout town.

The Co-op also sustained damage to a nurse tank when a power pole fell on it. One large tree fell onto a mobile home, and

another mobile home was blown over. One woman was injured when part of the wall of her apartment complex caved in. Severe

thunderstorm winds downed two-inch limbs five miles west of Meeker and in Prague in Lincoln County. In Cleveland County

three miles south of Stella, an 18-inch tree was downed, and numerous trees and limbs were downed in Norman. In Payne County

large limbs and three trees were downed in Stillwater, and limbs up to four inches were snapped in Atwood in Hughes County.

In Seminole County 1,500 residents of Seminole lost power due to trees blown over onto power lines. In northern Oklahoma

severe thunderstorm winds estimated at 70 mph removed shingles and downed two-inch limbs five miles south of Wakita in

Grant County. The roof and walls were blown out of a large metal machine shed 15 miles west of Medford in Grant County. In

Harper County, two-inch limbs were downed in Buffalo and one-foot limbs were downed in Laverne. One-foot tree limbs were

also downed in Arnett in Ellis County. In Woodward County numerous six-inch limbs were downed and the roof of a nursing

home was partially blown off in Mooreland. In Woodward large trees were downed by winds clocked as high as 65 mph at the

Woodward Airport. In Major County large trees and limbs were downed in Fairview, and in Noble County trees were uprooted

and limbs were snapped in Perry and Morrison. In western Oklahoma one-foot tree limbs were downed in Sayre in Beckham

was blown off a vacant motel, windows were blown out of storefronts, and signs were blown down. In the immediate vicinity

of Frederick a mobile home was destroyed, the roof was blown off a barn, trees were uprooted, and more than 70 utility poles

were downed including 50 that were snapped off at the ground. At the Frederick Airport two airplanes and two hangars suffered

an estimated $30,000 damage. Elsewhere in Tillman County, two-inch limbs were downed in Grandfield. In Comanche County

23 utility poles were blown down in Indiahoma and Chattanooga, and in Kiowa County 21 poles were downed in Snyder. Five

miles west of Hobart in Kiowa County a barn was destroyed by the strong winds. Trees, signs, power lines, and light poles were

blown down in Pauls Valley in Garvin County and in Davis in Murray County. Severe thunderstorm winds downed limbs up

to four inches in Tupelo in Coal County, and a one-foot tree limb was blown down onto a road one mile west of Wardville in

Atoka County. The three tornados occurred from a single storm, mainly in Cotton County, around mid-evening on the 23rd. The

first tornado was spotted on the Cotton/Comanche County line 10 miles north-northwest of Cookietown (which is eight miles

southeast of Faxon). The tornado was on the ground for two minutes and moved little during that time. The second tornado

occurred six miles north-northwest of Cookietown and lasted for one minute. The third tornado was spotted seven miles south

of Walters. None of the tornados resulted in damage and all three were rated as F0. Three-inch hail also fell with this same storm

in Cotton County five miles west of Walters on Interstate 44. Lightning struck and ignited the roof of a house in Weatherford

in Custer County. Damage was estimated at $28,000. In Comanche County lightning struck and set fire to a house in Lawton

The most intense convective storm in years roared across East Central and Northeast Oregon in the early afternoon, leaving at

least $55 million in total damages in it's wake. The storm was identified by Doppler Radar as a Supercell Storm, the type usually

associated with severe thunderstorms and tornadoes in the Midwestern United States that rarely occur in the Northwestern United

States. Most of the damages occurred between 1300 and 1400 in a narrow band from near Condon through Ione and Heppner

to Hermiston, and then into Southeastern Washington. Even four months after the event damage estimates are unreliable, largely

due to the rural nature of the area hardest hit. The best estimates of damages as of October are summarized below:

CROP DAMAGES: PROPERTY DAMAGES:

Gilliam County $ 1 Million Gilliam County $10 Million

Morrow and Umatilla Cos. $23 Million Wasco County $ 8 Million

Wasco County $ 8 Million -----------

----------- $18 Million

Total $32 Million

Most of the crop damages were due to the huge hail that fell in the area between Condon and Hermiston. Weather Service

personnel who went on a site inspection July 10 were shown four inch hailstones that were kept in the freezer by several local

residents. Hail diameters of 1.75 to 3.00 inches were fairly common along the storms path. The property damage in Gilliam

County was also due to hail, which reportedly left only three houses with undamaged windows in the small town of Ione. the most

common damages were house sidings and roofs riddled with holes, and dented cars with broken windshields. Other damages

were inflicted by trees felled by high winds and flooded basements and washed out roads from rainfall that was estimated at .6

to 1.5 inches in 15 minutes in some places. In Wasco County, almost all of the damage was washed out rural roads. In addition,

a tornado briefly touched down southeast of Hermiston. There were several reports of minor injuries to people who were struck

by large hail, but no serious injuries were reported. Listed below are some selected storm spotter reports from the dozens that

were received that day.

concentrated damage (400K) as the Kreutz Creek flooded the park. Also, a fire started about 1730 EST as the flood waters

shorted wires and firefighters were unable to help until the utility turned off the power. Half the homes had major damage.

Several homes were shoved off their foundations. The American Red Cross sheltered three families. Interstate 83 (three-mile

An oppressive heat wave gripped most of Eastern Pennsylvania. It climaxed on the 15th as almost every location reported record

breaking heat. The dew point temperatures, reached into the 80s across southern Pennsylvania that day, an almost unheard of

phenomena. This, combing with sweltering temperatures produced an apparent temperature of 129 degrees in Philadelphia. The

heat wave was broken for most of state the night of the 15th as a backdoor cold front helped trigger a complex of severe

thunderstorms. Relief for southeast Pennsylvania had to wait for a second cold front to move through the evening of the 18th.

Forty people died because of the heat, about 80 percent of them within Philadelphia. Heat related deaths occurred in Philadelphia

(33), Delaware (2), Lancaster (2), Chester (1), Clinton (1) and York (1) Counties. Most often the individuals who died were in

poor health, shut-ins, lived in attached brick housing and had no fans or air conditioning. In the Susquehanna Valley two deaths

were the result of outdoor activities, an 80-year-old man was sealing his driveway in Lock Haven and an 85-year-old woman

was found in a Shrewsbury corn field. Hospitals treated greater than 100 persons for heat exhaustion.

Record breaking high temperatures on the 15th included 104F in Lancaster, 103F in Philadelphia (The highest in 29 years.) and

Williamsport, 101F in Selinsgrove, 100F in Avoca, 99F in Harrisburg and 98F in Allentown. The excessive heat caused record

demand to be reached by the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland Interconnection Association and Pennsylvania Power and Light

on July 14th and Metropolitan Edison on the 15th. The excessive heat wreaked havoc as some roadways buckled. In Chester

County, the Gay Street bridge was closed for 72 hours. Other roadway closures included Interstate 83 in York County, United

States Route 422 in Montgomery County, United States Route 30, Pennsylvania State Routes 283 and 272 in Lancaster County

and Pennsylvania State Route 248 in Northampton County. The excessive heat contributed to a prison riot in the Philadelphia

Detention Center the night of the 14th and caused at least one water main break. Lastly, the heat wave took its toll on poultry

and cattle. An estimated 1 million chickens died because of the heat in Pennsylvania, one-fifth of them in Lancaster County.

Ninety-five percent of all chicken farms in Pennsylvania suffered losses. (M80OU), (F85OU), (M57VE), (M72PH), (M72PH),

A 38-hour period of extremely hot and humid weather in mid-July took its toll on humans and animals alike. The heat was

caused by strengthening of the Bermuda high, extending from the surface to the upper levels of the atmosphere. The most life-

threatening period of the heat wave occurred during the afternoon of the 15th, when temperatures ranged from 98 to 103 but heat

indices were between 115 and 129. For the entire period, heat indices were at or above 90 at most locations. On the evening

of the 15th, indices exceeded 100 until around 0200, when outflow from a strong thunderstorm cooled and dried the surface,

dropping temperatures and heat indices to the low to mid 70s. On the 15th, an all-time record for power usage was established

in northern Virginia, with 13,512 megawatts recorded (mostly from air conditioning usage). Five thousand customers were

without power in the same general area.

Two persons perished directly from the heat. In King George (VAZ057), an elderly man perished while in his home. In

Alexandria (Fairfax County), a National Park Service bicycle patrol ranger collapsed near Daingerfield Island, then later died

from complications resulting from hyperthermia. There were also several instances of heat exhaustion during the month,

concentrated during the middle two weeks. In Woodstock (Shenandoah County), six people were treated for heat exhaustion;

Alexandria hospitals reported about 80 persons requiring treatment between the 14th and 23rd. (MPH72, MOU37).

The heat wave returned twice in late July, from the 21st through the 25th and again from the 29th through the 31st. However,

temperatures were not as oppressive, ranging from 90 to 97 degrees. Daytime heat indices ranged from 105 to 115, but fell below

90 each night. No deaths or injuries were directly attributed to either episode.

Northwest Wisconsin 15 0000CST 57 ? ? ? Extreme Heat

This mid-July heat wave, advertized two days earlier in special statements, was nonetheless, one of the worst natural disasters

to affect Wisconsin. At least 58 deaths were directly attributed to an unprecedented combination of temperatures between 100

and 109 and dewpoints in the upper 70s to lower 80s. Many new daily record maximum temperatures were set. La Crosse tied

its all-time highest reading of 108 degrees. Even nighttime temperatures were torrid. Milwaukee set a new all-time record high

minimum of 84 on the 14th. Sadly, there were at least 69 additional deaths that were indirectly related to the heat wave. In some

cases, heat-related deaths were not discovered until several days after the heat wave ended. The majority of the deaths occurred

in the inner city, with the elderly hard hit. However, there were a number of deaths in the county as well. Heat indices peaked

at 120 to 130 degrees on the 13th, and 110 to 122 on the 14th, while only dropping to 85 to 100 at night. Approxiamately 100,000

animals perished due to the oppressive heat, among them cattle, pigs, milk cows, sheep, turkeys, chickens, pheasants, and horses.

Dead livestock pick-up companies were overwhelmed by the demand. All-time electricity demand neccesitated volunteer private

and business usage reductions in order to prevent widespread brownouts. Calumet County (WIZ049): M39PH, Clark County

A series of severe thunderstorms rolled across northern Wisconsin for several hours. They generated powerful winds which

toppled large trees and power lines in Land O'Lakes, Sayner, Conover, and Eagle River (Vilas County); in Cumberland and

Turtle Lake (Barron County); in Balsam Lake (Polk County); in Rhinelander (Oneida County); in Antigo and Pearson (Langlade

County), near Merril (Lincoln County), in Goodman and Athelstane (Marinette County); in Edgar (Marathon County), in Tony

(Rusk County); in and in Mountain, Oconto, and Oconto Falls (Oconto County). A tornado touched down 1.5 miles southwest

of Phelps (Vilas County) at 1640CST, and then moved east, uprooting trees and power poles. Trees fell on cars, homes and

businesses in this rural area. It lifted two miles southeast of Phelps at 1647CST. Strong thunderstorm winds temporarily lifted

the roof off a hangar building at the Cumberland Airport. Three walls of the hangar buckled as the roof settled back down. As

a result the entire structure collapsed onto three airplanes stored in the hangar. Strong thunderstorm winds struck the Chippewa

Valley Rock Fest near Cadot (Chippewa County). Flying debris injured 10 people. The strong winds knocked over a beer tent

and several large speaker towers.

Scattered severe thunderstorms developed in the morning hours on a westward moving lake breeze. Later in the day another

family of severe storms moved out of Iowa into southern Wisconsin. Torrential rains, large hail, and powerful damaging winds

were associated with the storms. Many large trees were toppled, some of which fell on homes and vehicles. Lightning strikes

started a fire which did damage to a chimney of a historical building in Greenbush (Sheboygan County). Otherwise, powerful

winds blew down large trees in both in Elkhart Lake and Plymouth (Sheboygan County). A lightning strike severely damaged

a silo near the city of Darlington (Lafayette County). Hail up to three inches in diameter pounded the area around Rolling Prairie

(Dodge County), which resulted in damage to area crops, cars, and the roofs/windows of several homes. A 13-year-old boy was

killed by lightining in Brown Deer (Milwaukee County) while playing on a swing set. Considerable street flooding occurred in

Wauwatosa (Milwaukee County) as over one inch of rain fell in 15 minutes. A gazebo was destroyed and large trees felled by

powerful winds near a TV station in Brown Deer. High winds demolished and moved an eight car garage 55 feet in West Bend

(Washington County). Roof shingles were torn from several homes in Waukesha (Waukesha County) as powerful winds blew

down several large trees. A home in Wauwatosa (Milwaukee County) had its chimny blown knocked off by a lightning bolt.

Several violent clusters of severe storms moved east/southeast across the southern half of Wisconsin in a strongly sheared wind

environment (veering winds). The high winds knocked down large trees and a 75-foot communications tower just east of La

Crosse (La Crosse County), disrupting 911 service. The high winds also toppled large trees in Viroqua (Vernon County), in

Lynxville (Crawford County), and in Millville and Lancaster (Grant County). A lightning fire burned down an old barn in

Seneca, but no animals were lost. Large hail damaged the corn crop around Shullsburg (Lafayette County), while powerful winds

blew down large trees, a wind mill, and the top of a silo east of Graitiot (Lafayette County). Elsewhere spotters estimated winds

in excess of 60 mph which blew down large trees and a home's chimney in Rewey (Iowa County). Further northeast, damaging

winds knocked down large trees in Mazomanie, Mt. Vernon, and Stoughton, all in Dane county. The tree damage in Stoughton

was the worst in 20 years. Severe storms toppled large trees and power lines in Monroe (Green County). The associated torrential

rains of three inches in 1.5 hours generated urban flooding in Monroe with several roads flooded over. The powerful winds then

moved east to knock large trees down east of Albany (Green County), one which damaged a home's roof. Lightning struck and

injured two teenagers, a female, 16, and a male, 18, near Fort Atkinson (Jefferson County). A lightning strike resulted in loss

of water, electricity, gas, cable and telephone service to many homes in Prescott (Pierce County). Other violent storms blew large

trees across the highway in Evansville (Rock County). In Janesville (Rock County), spotters estimated winds to 70 mph which

knocked over large trees and road signs; and damaged

a greenhouse and residental wooden deck. Lightning started a fire which destroyed a barn full of hay near Milton (Rock County).

Powerful winds blew many large trees down in Delavan (Walworth County); and toppled large trees, tore a roof off a gazebo,

and snapped a flag pole in half around Spring Prairie (Rock County). A Spring Prairie resident, who has experienced a hurricane,

estimated winds at of at least 80 mph. The same storms then tore through the Burlington, North Cape, and Union Grove

communities in Racine County. Spotters in Racine County estimated the winds at 80 mph which blew many large trees down

in those communities. In the Merton (Waukesha County) area, spotters noted that powerful winds held four inch diameter trees
