2015: Unseasonable high pressure and warm ocean waters led to very warm October days
and the warmest October nights on record from this day through 10/15.
In San Diego, five out of the six highest October minimum temperatures on record occurred.
The highest minimum temperature in any October was 76° on this day and again on 10/13.
This is only two degrees off the highest minimum temperature for any time of year!
(Onlyseven nights in history recorded 77° or 78°, all of which occurred during September, meaning these October nights were warmer than any night in July or August in San Diego).
On this day the highest minimum temperature in October was also recorded in Chula Vista (73°, only three degrees off all-time highest), Oceanside Harbor (74°, only two degrees off all-time
highest), and El Cajon (tied 69°).
On 10/13 Santa Ana recorded 78°, the highest October minimum temperature on record.
The top six warmest October nights on the Chula Vista record occurred this month, and the top five in El Cajon occurred this month.
2009: Across the Bay Area a powerful early season storm produced record-setting one day rainfall totals for October, along with very strong winds.
Rainfall totals across the region ranged from 2"- 6" at lower elevations, and from 5"-10" in the coastal mountain ranges.
In Morgan Hill, more than 7" of rain in 13 hours resulted in urban flooding throughout the downtown area.
Several locations reported wind gusts in excess of 50 mph and a few spots in the San Francisco Bay Area saw peak winds of 70 mph.
2009: Moisture from the remnants of super typhoon Melor that brought destructive winds and heavy rain to the Philippines and Japan during the previous week moved over the central California interior bringing high elevation snowfall and large amounts of rainfall.
Many valley and Sierra Nevada locations set new record high precipitation amounts.
The southern end of the valley had strong down slope winds, especially near the coastal ranges.
Dinkey Creek RAWS in the Sierra Nevada southwest of Shaver Lake recorded over 9" of rain between 8 AM and midnight.
2006: A thunderstorm dropped 0.51" of rain in five minutes and 1.81" in 30 minutes in San Bernardino.
18 homes and businesses and 2 vehicles were damaged by flooding.
Big sinkholes were left in a road.
One man required rescue from his vehicle.
Mud and debris were left on roads.
2006: Thunderstorm winds blew down trees and power lines, and blew tiles off roofs in Mohave Valley (Colorado River Valley north of Needles on AZ side of Colorado River).
A cold upper level low moved across the Mojave Desert, tapping into unseasonably moist air to produce strong thunderstorms.
1978: Bakersfield reached a high of 102° F and would achieve this same high again on the 14th this same year.
This is the latest ever in the year Bakersfield has had back-to-back days with triple digit high temperatures.
1962: Heavy rains continued while wind toppled trees in the Redding area.
One of the fallen trees smashed a water meter at 1318 Trinity St., causing water to shoot skyward.
Waves reached 6' high at Lake Shasta.
