What Happened On This Date, August 18?

1926 - A weather map was televised for the first time. It was sent from NAA Arlington to the Weather Bureau Office in Washington.

1983 - 22 people were killed and over $1 billion in damage was caused when hurricane Alicia hit the Texas coast.

....And don't forget this month is Family Fun Month. Why not go out to the opening day of the Kentucky State Fair and have a little fun. If you can't make it to the first day, you got plenty of time to plan and attend so as to enjoy the music, rides, exhibits, and hmmm, seems like I'm forgetting something...ok, just kidding, the FOOD!
