Today's Weather Trivia:
1842: A storm left 12 cm of snow on the ground near the Canada-United States
border in Québec. Hundreds of sheep perished in the snow and cold.
Conditions reminded old-timers of the snow and cold in the summer of 1816.
That year, known as the year without summer, several people froze their
hands and feet in June.
