Today’s Weather Trivia:
13 February 1923: In Edmonton, AB, shivering crowds waited for streetcars as the temperatures plunged to -34°C. But that was nothing compared to the -50°C at House River and Fort McMurray. Saskatchewan also suffered. Trains from the east ran 2 to 10 hours late and a northern gale piled snow high. At Langbank, SK, a passenger train ran into the rear of a stalled snowplow; the plow's caboose broke into kindling. --Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
