Todays' Weather Trivia:
5 February 1899: In 1959, a veteran Yukoner was remembering a cold wave that gripped the Territory 60 years ago, when the mercury froze and all ravens went south. No one ventured out except in an emergency. Local prospectors spent their time indoors in warm cabins washing gold nuggets while baking bread with a "gleam in their eye thinking of the good times to come when they sluiced the dump in spring." --Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
