Today’s Weather Trivia:
12 February 1951: Freezing weather brought relief from floods in the upper reaches of British Columbia's Fraser Valley after a 3-day deluge exceeded 300 mm. Four persons lost their lives and nearly 1,000 were left homeless. About 8 trains were halted short of their destinations, as transcontinental lines were cut by mudslides and washouts. When the rain ended, some parts of the valley got 15 cm of snow.--Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
