Today’s Weather Trivia:

7 March 2007: A student lost near Little Salmon River (NB) for 2 days used his cellphone to contact his father in Florida who then contacted the RCMP. On a 5-day hike near the rugged Bay of Fundy coast, with a -36°C wind chill, 44 km/h winds, and light snow, the young man lost his compass and food, became disoriented, and froze his feet twice. He was airlifted to Saint John, at risk of losing 1 or 2 toes. – Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
