Weather Highlight
For the snow lovers that are mourning
the loss of snow cover around Happy Valley, take solace
in the fact that heavy snow and record cold is being felt
in Mongolia and Northern China. Although six foot drifts
and temperatures of 40 degrees below zero seem
impressive, 23 people and 5,000 animals fell victim to
the blizzard. The region has had its share of problems
during the past two years aside from this storm,
including record flooding and parching droughts.
