| MAY 23RD, 1882 |
Eastern Iowa receives 6 in (15 cm) of snow during late season snowstorm. |
| MAY 23RD, 1989 |
Severe thunderstorms developing along a cold front resulted in 98 reports of large hail and damaging winds in the Northern Plains and Upper Mississippi Valley. Golf ball size hail caused a million dollars damage around Buffalo City WI, baseball size hail was reported at Northfield MN and Randolph MN, and thunderstorm winds gusted to 95 mph at Dunkerton IA. |
| MAY 22ND, 1987 |
A powerful tornado virtually wiped the small southwest Texas community of Saragosa off the map.

The tornado hurled trucks and autos through adobe and wood- frame homes, with some vehicles blown 500 feet. |

About all that remained of one house was a small table and a fish bowl atop, with the fish still swimming about inside the bowl, rather unconcerned. |

| MAY 18TH, 1980 |
Mount Saint Helens (in Washington State) erupted spewing ash and smoke sixty-three thousand feet into the air. Heavy ash covered the ground to the immediate northwest, and small particles were carried to the Atlantic coast. |
