Today's Weather Trivia:
12 September 1952: Wind, rain, and hail combined to wreak havoc on
crops in the Oak Lake, MB, area. The storm shattered windows, ripped a metal
garage from its foundation, and cut hydro-electric services. In some places,
hail lay 8 cm deep. At Fork River, MB, lightning severely damaged a Federal
Grain company building. A volunteer bucket brigade saved a grain elevator
from catching fire.

Sky Events:
• International Space Station (visible sighting):
There will be no visible sightings for the next few days.
• This is a great time of year to watch the Milky Way -- the glowing band of
stars that outlines the disk of our home galaxy. As the Moon sets around 9
or 10 p.m., the Milky Way arcs high overhead. But you need dark skies to see
it. – [Star Date Online]
• AURORA ('Northern Lights') WATCH: Auroral activity will be quiet.
