Today's weather trivia: 8 January


1950: The clock at the post office in Lethbridge, AB, bonged at the wrong
time, confusing passersby. Officials said that due to accumulated dust, fog,
and freezing temperatures, the hands on the clock had become frozen, causing
the large timepiece to act up. The post office could not say when the clock
would sound the correct time-at least not until the weatherman could promise
warmer weather.

Today's weather trivia: 7 January


2008: Heavy fog in southern Ontario led to school closures,
cancelled/postponed buses and flights, and highway closures. It was the
worst where snow on the ground cooled unseasonably warm air. In rural areas,
visibility was zero, stranding hundreds of drivers. One man died in a foggy
crash in the Ottawa Valley on a day that set a daily record for the warmest
temperature, +9.5°C, in over 60 years.

1904: The weather turned bitterly cold, and old-timers around Crooked Creek,
YT, said the wind would "blow the hair off a dog." One musher tied a
handkerchief over his face, covering everything but his eyes. A mass of ice,
the congealed moisture from sweat and breath, stuck to his face, making
breathing difficult. The ends of his fingers stung.

2003: A British Columbia judge ruled that a man suing the city of Kamloops
for his fall on an icy sidewalk had no leg to stand on. He wrote: "Ice is a
natural hazard of Canadian winters. It can form quickly and unexpectedly ...
Slippery walks can never be completely prevented ... [as it] would be
prohibitively expensive." All parties being sued acted reasonably to protect
the public, he said.

1950: A snowstorm hit British Columbia¿s lower mainland and Vancouver
Island. The snow was so deep in places that 1000 sawmill workers were idled
across the province. Trains were 5-10 hours late. What seemed to have no
trouble getting through the blockade were trucks toting liquor, much to the
relief of mining communities. Brutal cold followed with temperatures dipping
to -50°C at Prince George, BC.

Today's weather trivia: 2 January


1922: Stripped of her sails, iced-up, and unmanageable, the schooner
Alexandra, carrying a cargo of fish, was driven ashore near Ingonish, NS.
Because the blinding snow prevented hope of rescue, in desperation, the
master tied a line to his waist, jumped into the icy water, and fought his
way to shore. Luckily, the howling blizzard ceased for a spell, and the
master was able to drag his crew to safety.
