Today's Weather Trivia:

June 13,1886: On a warm, dry day, a wind gust sent sparks flying as a contractor burned debris and cleared land near False Creek, BC, to create building lots for a new city-Vancouver. In the resulting conflagration, the small settlement burned to the ground and lives were lost. The next day, only a telegraph pole and a few stumps could be seen standing above the charred destruction. – Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
