Today’s Weather Trivia:

20 October 2005:2005: The 20th annual Coats for Kids campaign in Windsor, ON, was off to a very slow start. Organizers were concerned that only 2,000 of the needed 5,000 coats had been collected. Warm weather was partly to blame. October temperatures averaged nearly 2° warmer than normal, many days reaching into the high 20s with nighttime minimums above 10, hardly coat-like weather.  – Excerpt from 'The Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar' by David Phillips. © Environment Canada
