Today's weather trivia: 1 October
1920: A storm bearing 120 km/h winds hit Quebec City, inflicting extensive
damage. Among downed services were streetcars, telephones, and electricity.
The winds ripped roofs off homes and damaged the tops of large buildings and
churches. Everywhere streets were blocked by rubble and downed power lines.
Firefighters were busy extinguishing wind-driven blazes.
