Today's weather trivia: 21 September
1944: Travelling at a terrific speed, a twister cut a 0.5-km-wide swath
across the countryside on both sides of the Ottawa River, mowing down
several buildings and 1,000s of trees. The freak windstorm was accompanied
by heavy hail and torrential rain. It originated near Haley's Station in
Ontario's Renfrew County, swept northward, jumped the Ottawa River, and
lifted just north of Shawville, QC.
