Droughts and wildfires
- List of Idaho wildfires
- List of Wyoming wildfires
- 1934 Heat Wave 1934 had the hottest Summer until 2021 and I believe is also the largest drought/heat wave in US history. Surprised it doesn't have an article yet.
Floods
- 1969 Southern California floods - occurred in January/February, killed 87 people per NWS, here's a report from USGS
- 1969 North Africa floods - A Medicane and major flood event that killed 616 people in Tunisia/Algeria, and also affected Malta. USGS report, $110 million in damage per USAID, Extensive aftermath
- 1971 Red River Delta Flood - killed 100,000 in Vietnam during the Vietnam war
Meteorological instruments and data
Non-tropical storms
- 1779-1780 "The Hard" Winter I've done some research on it and it has been said it's the worst winter in American history. Most notably, the American Army encamped at Morriston recorded at least 26 winter storms, including 6 blizzards. In New York City, the British were able to march from Manhattan to Staten Island with their cannons from how thick the ice was on the Hudson River.[1] Jamisonsupame (talk) 04:27, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
- 2008–09 North American winter - the most recent North American winter without an article
- 2023–24 Asian winter - Draft:2023–24 Asian winter (and make articles for previous seasons)
- Nor'easters in 2025 (and make articles for previous events)
- There was a recent deadly nor'easter that caused floods in New York, and yea, maybe it should exist as Late October 2005 nor'easter, but there was also a nor'easter a few weeks ago that caused floods. They happen each year, so I figured, why not have a yearly article. Some of them will be redundant with the yearly winter articles, so I understand if people think this isn't a good idea. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 21:31, 31 October 2025 (UTC)
