Today’s Weather Trivia:

19 February 2005: About 40 bone-weary men reached their goal of playing the longest ice hockey game ever-more than 10 days-skating 2 days beyond the record held by residents of Moosomin, SK, and qualifying them for an entry in Guinness World Records. Temperatures during the game ranged from 12° to -15°C. The game was played on a homemade rink in Edmonton, AB. The score was about 1,700 to 1,600. --Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
