Description

The nineteenth edition of the original Canadian Weather Trivia Calendar is a unique calendar, chock-full of wild, weird, and sometimes woeful weather stories that any weather junkie is sure to love. Written by Canada's crown prince of weather experts, David Phillips, this year's calendar continues to wow readers with new weather trivia for every day of the year. Lovingly selected from Phillips's own astounding collection of weather lore, which he has gleaned as he has traveled across Canada, explaining the country's weather.

This year's calendar features twelve awe-inspiring, full-colour weather photographs by Canada's best photographers for each month, fantastic weather facts and figures, and the inimitable weather-wise quiz. Two additional features accompany this year's calendar:

  • 6 pages of full-colour weather flashes, including colour cartoons, eight 4 x 5 weather images, and the intriguing weather stories for which Phillips has become famous.

    A pull-out poster giving the low-down on hurricanes - hurricane basics for all weather fans - including hurricane images and atmospheric factors contributing to tropical storm and hurricane formation, all in an easy-to-read format perfect for a bedroom wall or a classroom.
