Today's Weather Trivia:
1912: The Regina cyclone, Canada's worst tornado, also swept across rural
districts. Killing 28 people, it picked up buildings like paper boxes and
smashed them into kindling wood-traces of them were found miles away. Even
cement foundations were ground into powder. In was reported that the tornado
grabbed a woman, stripped off her clothes, even removing her shoes, and
carried her 150 m.
