In 1641 An observer at Boston MA recorded a "great tempest of
wind and rain from the southeast all night, as fierce as
a hurricane, and thereupon followed the highest tide
which we have seen since our arrival here".
In 1957 Extremely destructive Santa Ana winds blew from Oxnard to
San Diego and inland parts of southern California. The
high winds produced a 28,000 acre brush fire on a 40-mile
front west of Crystal Lake. People were ordered off
streets in some areas due to flying debris. (21st-22nd)
In 1987 Eight cities in the eastern U.S. reported record low
temperatures for the date. Elkins WV, reported a low of
5 degrees above zero. Gale force winds continued along
the Northern Atlantic Coast.
In 1988 Wet and windy weather prevailed across the western U.S.,
with heavy snow in some of the higher elevations. Winds
gusted to 62 mph at Vedauwoo WY, and reached 75 mph at
Tillamook OR. Shelter Cove CA was drenched with 4.37
inches of rain in 24 hours.
In 1989 Strong northerly winds produced squalls along the shore
of Lake Michigan, with heavy snow in extreme southeast
Wisconsin. Milwaukee WI received nine inches of snow,
and in Racine County there were more than one hundred
automobile accidents.
In 2011 Hurricane Mitch became the strongest late season
hurricane in the Eastern Pacific basin, as a category
4 storm with 145 mph winds...although it was no threat
to land.
In 2016 Hurricane Otto became the latest hurricane formation on
in the Caribbean Sea, eclipsing the mark of Martha (1969)
by about a day. Otto went into central America on
Thanksgiving Day, just north of San Juan De Nicaragua,
as the southernmost landfalling hurricane in central
America on record. He then remerged into the Eastern
Pacific Ocean as a tropical storm on the 25th, before
eventually dissipating. (22nd to 26th).

In 1909 Rattlesnake Creek in Idaho was deluged with 7.17 inches
of rain in 24 hours to establish a state record.
In 1943 Northern New Hampshire was in the grips of a record
snowstorm which left a total of 55 inches at Berlin, and

Pacific coast. Quillayute WA received 1.57 inches of
rain in 24 hours, including .90 inch in six hours. Heavy
snow fell over northern Oregon and the Cascade Mountains
of Washington State. Temperatures began to moderate in
the eastern U.S. following a bitterly cold weekend.
In 1988 Low pressure crossing the Great Basin brought wintry
weather to parts of the western U.S. Up to a foot of
snow blanketed Yellowstone Park, and winds gusted to
70 mph at Casper WY, and reached 95 mph near Reno NV. Up
to seven inches of rain was reported in the Grass Valley
and Nevada City area of California. Paradise CA was
soaked with 5.37 inches of rain in 24 hours.
In 1989 Low pressure tracking across the Carolinas brought heavy
rain to parts of the Southern Atlantic Coast Region for
Thanksgiving Day, and blanketed the Middle Atlantic Coast
States and southern New England with heavy snow. The
storm produced up to nine inches of snow over Long Island
NY, and up to 14 inches over Cape Cod MA, at Yarmouth.
Totals of 4.7 inches at New York City and 6.0 inches at
Newark NJ were records for Thanksgiving Day, the 8.0 inch
total at Providence RI was a record for any given day in
November, and the 6.5 inch total at Strasburg CT was a
record for the month of November as a whole.
In 2000 (23rd-24th) Much of the southern plains was inundated
by flooding rains, and some areas got severe weather.
Several parts of Arkansas got over 4 inches of rain.
In 2001 For the second year in a row, Arkansas and adjacent states
were hit by severe weather on the same days. Several tornadic
thunderstorms along with an intense squall line traversed the
state, resulting in heavy damage, along with some injuries and
fatalities; although rainfall wasn't as impressive as
the year before. (23rd-24th).

In 1987 Showers and thunderstorms produced heavy rain in southern
Missouri, southeast Kansas and northeastern Oklahoma.
Flooding was reported in Greene County of southwestern
Missouri. Springfield MO was drenched with more than six

Colorado ranged up to 40 inches at Wolf Creek Pass, with
27 inches falling in 24 hours. Telluride CO received 32
inches of snow, and winds atop Mines Peak gusted to 95 mph.
In 1989 "Mother Nature" completed a one-two punch in the
northeastern U.S., as record cold temperatures followed
in the wake of record snows. A dozen cities reported
record low temperatures for the date. Morning lows of
one above zero at Hartford CT, 3 at Portland ME, and 6 at
Providence RI, were records for November. Houlton ME was
the cold spot in the nation with a morning low of 14
degrees below zero.
In 2014 Temperatures warmed into the 60s, and much of the heavy
snow that fell on the 17th-21st, melted quickly, causing
severe flooding.

In 1921 New England was in the midst of a four day icestorm,
their worst of record. Ice was more than three inches
thick in many places following the storm, and property
damage was in the millions. Northern New England
received heavy snow with more than two feet in some
areas. Overnight freezing rains continued through the
day at Worcester MA while the wind increased to a gale.
Streets become impassable even on foot, and whole towns
were plunged into darkness without communication. The
storm caused 20 million dollars damage to power lines,
telephone lines and trees.
In 1960 A severe storm produced waves 20 to 40 feet high on Lake
Superior. Duluth MN was buried under a foot of snow, and
clocked wind gusts to 73 mph. The northern shore of Lake
Superior was flooded and property along the shore was
battered. Thousands of cords of pulpwood were washed
into Lake Superior, and up to three feet of water flooded
the main street of Grand Marais. Thunder accompanied the
"nor'easter".
In 1987 Low pressure in the Middle Mississippi Valley produced a
mixture of snow and sleet and freezing rain from the
Central Plains to the Upper Mississippi Valley. Snow-
fall totals in Iowa ranged up to ten inches at Red Oak.
Totals in Nebraska ranged up to 11 inches at Shickley.
Freezing rain made roads treacherous in the Twin Cities
area of southeastern Minnesota. Bitter cold arctic air
invaded the Northern High Plains Region. Laramie WY was
the cold spot in the nation with a morning low of 18
degrees below zero.
In 1988 Thunderstorms spawned five tornadoes in North Carolina

November temperatures across Montana and the Dakotas
averaged 15 to 25 degrees below normal.
In 1969 Dense fog along the Jersey Turnpike resulted in a chain
reaction of vehicle collisions during the morning rush
hour. A propane truck jacknifed and was struck by a

California, but record cold was reported in some of
the California valleys, with readings of 27 degrees
at Redding and 31 degrees at Bakersfield. Gale force
winds, gusting to 44 mph at Milwuakee WI, produced snow
squalls in the Great Lakes Region. Sault Ste Marie MI
