- Today’s Weather Trivia:
April 18,1922: Torrential rains fell in Montreal, QC, during a 90-minute storm. Strong winds carried away roofs and pieces of tin cascaded from some buildings. Hats careered up the streets with owners in hot pursuit. In one serious accident a person fell 6 floors through the steel frame of a building, landed on a wooden form for concrete structures, but then got up and walked to an ambulance.

The constellation Crater, the cup, dribbles across the south on spring nights. Eight stars outline the cup, but they are so faint that you need a fairly dark sky to see any of them. That is only because they are a great distance away, though.
