JANUARY TORNADOES CAUSE DAMAGE TO SOUTHEAST US An episode of severe weather usually associated with the spring and summer months, occurred over the southeastern United States on January 17, and January 22, 1999. On January 17 a strong storm system moves over southwest Missouri. The National Weather Service office in Little Rock AK recognizes there is a potential for severe weather and issues a tornado warning at 2:49 P.M. CST. Other National Weather Service offices follow suit and post tornado warnings for portions of Arkansas and Tennessee. Several tornadoes touch down throughout the afternoon and early evening in both Arkansas and western and central Tennessee. Eight people died, 131 people were injured and property damage exceeded 40 million dollars.

MORE TORNADOES STRIKE TENNESSEE VALLEY A second round of severe weather affected the same areas on January, 21 - 22. The National Weather Service offices in Little Rock, Memphis and Nashville issued several tornado warnings throughout the day on the 21st and into the morning of the 22nd. Several strong tornadoes touched down in North- Central Arkansas and Western Tennessee in the late afternoon and evening hours of the 21st. Early on the 22nd, an F3 (wind speeds of 158 - 206 mph) touched down in the city of Clarksville, TN. Property damage is estimated at $72.7 million. Only five injuries were recorded.

UNUSUAL SNOWFALL FOR SOUTH-CENTRAL CALIFORNIA An unusual storm event occurs in the Jan Joaquin Valley - Snow! Snow is a rarity in this area, having only fallen 15 times since 1937. Temperatures reached the upper 20's and lower 30's overnight on the 24th and a coastal storm off the coast of Southern California provided the moisture. Precipitation began to fall overnight and the residents of the San Joachin Valley woke to several inches of new snow. The record snowfall amount was 1.5 inches at Bakersfield, set in March of 1974. Snowfall of January 25th broke this record with 3 inches measured at the Meadows Fiels Airport in Bakersfield. This prompted the issuance of snow advisories for the valley floor. Bakersfield received as much as 3 inches of snow across almost all of the city, with 4-6 inches reported in the higher northeast section of the city. Snowfall occurred over much of the south end of the valley. Measurable amounts were recorded in Taft, in western Kern County, and as far north as Visalia, in Tulare County. Snow plows were needed to clear a rare 2-4 inch snowfall from roadsaround the east valley communities of Tulare and Visalia so that State Highway 99 could remain open. The nearby Tehachapi Mountains received 12-30 inches of snow and along with the South Valley snow, shut down Interstate- 5, the main traffic corridor between Los Angeles and Northern California, and Highway 99 through Kern.

  • PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

While the extent of the winter storm traversed coast to coast, this summary will cover the Southern Climate Impacts Planning Program (SCIPP) region of Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana (Fig. 1). We'll be diving into the weather pattern, records, the Figure 1. SCIPP Region context of this event relative to climatology, past historic events, impacts, and hazard mitigation successes. EVENTHIGHLIGHTS Extreme Cold Temperature and Snow: Nearly 3,000 long-term temperature records were broken/tied in February in the SCIPP region. All 120 OK Mesonet stations were below 0°F at the same time for the first time. Some areas were below freezing for nearly 2 weeks. This was the coldest event in the region in over 30 years.

  • Climatic Summary of Snowfall and Snow Depth in the Ohio Snowbelt at Chardon1
    Ohio J. Science ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION 101 Climatic Summary of Snowfall and Snow Depth in the Ohio Snowbelt at Chardon1 THOMAS W. SCHMIDLIN, Geography Department and Water Resources Research Institute, Kent State University, Kent, OH 44242 ABSTRACT. Snowfall records were examined for the period 1945-85 at Chardon, OH, the only station with a long climatic record in the snowbelt. Average seasonal snowfall was 269 cm (106 in) with a seasonal maxi- mum of 410 cm (161 in). Seasonal snowfall was positively correlated with other sites in the lower Great Lakes snowbelts and along the western slope of the Appalachians from Tennessee to Quebec, but was not correlated with snowfall in the snowbelts of the upper Lakes. The time series of seasonal snowfall was not random but showed weak year-to-year persistence. The average number of days with 2.5 cm (1 in) of snow- fall was 35. The average dates of the first and last 2.5 cm snowfalls of the winter were 10 November and 4 April. The largest two-day snowfall of the winter averaged 33 cm. The average number of days with 2.5 cm of snow cover was 82. Daily probability of snow cover reached the seasonal maximum of 86% in mid-January and early February. These results may be reasonably extrapolated throughout the Ohio snow- belt for applications in vegetation studies, animal ecology, hydrology, soil science, recreation, and transpor- tation studies.

  • Idaho Moose Management Plan 2020-2025
    Idaho Moose Management Plan 2020-2025 DRAFT December 10, 2019 1 This page intentionally left blank. 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Shiras Moose (Alces alces shirasi) occur across much of Idaho, except for the southwest corner of the state. Moose are highly valued by both hunters and non-hunters, providing consumptive and non-consumptive opportunities that have economic and aesthetic value. Over the past century their known range has expanded from small areas of northern and eastern Idaho to their current distribution. Population size also increased during this time, likely peaking around the late 1990s or early 2000s. The Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) is concerned that current survey data, anecdotal information and harvest data indicate moose have recently declined in parts of Idaho. Several factors may be impacting moose populations both positively and negatively including predation, habitat change (e.g., roads, development, timber harvest), changing climate, disease or parasites and combinations thereof. IDFG was established to preserve, protect, perpetuate and manage all of Idaho’s fish and wildlife. As such, species management plans are written to set statewide management direction to help fulfill IDFG’s mission. Idaho’s prior moose management plan (Idaho Department of Fish and Game 1990) addressed providing a quality hunting experience, the vulnerability of moose to illegal harvest, protecting their habitat, improving controlled hunt drawing odds and expanding moose populations into suitable ranges. The intent of this revision to the 1990 Moose Management Plan is to provide guidance for IDFG and their partners to implement management actions that will aid in protection and management of moose populations in Idaho and guide harvest season recommendations for the next 6 years.
