I was taking a look at the current temperature in Calgary and it’s cold: 12 degrees F (-11 degrees C). About two weeks ago, the temperature went as low as -20 degrees F (-29 degrees C). Holy molly! My ex-roommate Boon and his wife 少红 moved there a few weeks ago.
I lived in Calgary between 1991 and 1992, and i spent very first winter there. I can’t remember how i survived those chilly winter months. After spending about 10 minutes searching for the historical weather data for the period of time when i was in Calgary, i found the information i wanted at the National Climate Data and Information Archive of Environment Canada. The site is really neat, i can search for weather related info that goes as far back as 1881. The degree of detail can be as trivial as the hourly temperature. At one click of a button, i can, for example, generate a graph for the daily mininum temperature in the month of February of 1992, as shown below:
