Today's weather trivia: 4 March 2009: Officials evacuated 24 people from a
trailer park near Truro, NS, after ice-jammed flooding on the Salmon River.
In Pictou County, people watched the ice-clogged and "noisy" East River rise
4 m high. Pieces of equipment, building materials, unoccupied kennels, and
other debris bobbed in the waters. Ice cakes, 1 m thick, floated about,
rumbling and crushing everything in riverside yards.
