Today’s Weather Trivia:
25 October 1933: The stormy waters of Lake Winnipeg (MB) held fast the fate of 26 persons aboard 2 lake fishing boats, their whereabouts unreported for 5 days. Snow-laden winds converted inshore craft into miniature icebergs. Search planes were used to locate the 2 vessels, believed to be frozen in somewhere.– Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
