Today's Weather Trivia:

June 6,2005: Over 200 mm of rain had fallen in southern Alberta, filling rivers, creeks, and streams. Stream-flow rates 15 times their usual had kayakers ecstatic. In June, Calgary got 247.6 mm of rain (normal was 79.8 mm), the wettest month ever recorded. More than 2,000 Calgarians fled their homes as floodwaters filled basements with foul-smelling sewage and raised concern about clean drinking water. – Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
