Today's Weather Trivia:
2004: Residents of Victoria-Esquimalt, BC, braced for the annual stench from
rotting sea lettuce. When green, sea lettuce resembles small green-coloured
hankies floating ashore on the tide. However, once the sun bleaches it and
air temperatures rise, it quickly turns into a putrid, stinking, and foul
mess.
