Today’s Weather Trivia:
6 September 2007: Thick smoke from illegal stubble burning cloaked Winnipeg, MB, creating tension between city and rural dwellers. It snarled traffic, spawning at least 1 serious car crash. Those with allergies and asthma suffered. A paramedic said it was like having a black shower curtain pulled over the windshield. Some residents worried a fire was blazing nearby and countless home fire alarms went off. – Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada

• The western evening sky offers a figure that seems just right for Labor Day: Hercules, the strongman. In mythology, he had to labor not once, but 12 times. If you have a dark sky, look for Hercules shining faintly in the west after sunset. – [Star Date Online]
