The national weather map shows a high pressure area all along the eastern coastline which brought them very pleasant, sunny weather from New York to Florida.  But showers and thunderstorms are occurring from the Ohio River all the way south to the Gulf coast, depositing heavy amounts of rain over the southern states.
    By far the worst of the storms has occurred in and around Texas. Some Texas stations have reported up to fifteen inches of rain in a twenty-four-hour period with high winds and thunderstorms. Two tornadoes were reported along the Gulf coast of Texas, but we have no confirmation of damages or injury.
    Heavy amounts of snow were reported in the Rock Mountain region with record cold temperatures in Denver and Boulder. As much as a foot of snow has fallen in some of the mountain stations.
    In contrast, temperatures in Arizona and the desert Southwest went over the one-hundred-degree mark again today under bright, sunny skies.
