Today's weather trivia: 2 March 2009: The Saint John, NB, area endured
another snowy day a week after a record snowfall buried the region. Crews
had just enough time between snowstorms to clean the sidewalks, widen
streets, and trim snowbanks. Streets were clogged with so much snow that
ploughs had to lead fire trucks and ambulances on their emergency calls.
