UJadvises the weather lore. November 15,
1900, gave Watertown, New York, 45 inches of
snow On November 16, 1958, Tucson, Arizona,
received 6 inches of snow On that day m 1959,
the thermometer dropped to -53°F in Lincoln,
Montana. On November 17, 1927, Washington,
D.C., was hit by a tornado. If this marked the end
of mild-mannered Indian summer (traditionally
Nov 11 to 20), we wonder what winter brought!

WIT AND WISDOM FROM THE OLD FARMER’S ALMANAC
■ Turkeys perched in the trees and refusing to descend
indicate snow
■ Add a little horseradish to your sandwiches now, to
keep colds at bay this winter
■ If the Moon change on a Sunday, there will be a flood
before the month is out
