Today’s Weather Trivia:
11 July 1874: Very high winds, torrential rains, and hail the size of a blackbird's egg became what locals called a perfect hurricane. Windows in several houses were broken, most of the crops in southern Manitoba were destroyed, and fences were blown down, allowing cattle to trample the fields. A large Hudson Bay boat outside the wall of Lower Fort Gary was dragged 60 m and left standing on its keel. – Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
