Today's Weather Trivia:
1937: It was 45°C in Saskatchewan-the hottest ever in Canada. Starved
grasshoppers were too weak to fly. The crushed insects covered railway
tracks. Regina authorities worried over water quality and quantity as
Wascana Lake shrank. Near Oxbow, farmers harvested old buffalo bones from a
dried lake floor. At $12 a ton, it may have been their first decent harvest
in years. [Ron Petrie, Regina Leader Post]
