[Vision2020] Winnipeg 26 F. Above Moscow Last Night 5 AM?

[Ted Moffett]

While listening to 990 AM CBC Radio One from Winnipeg (off the airwaves, not
Internet), Manitoba last night at about 5 AM PDST (3 AM in Winnipeg), they
announced the temperature as 0 degrees (32 Fahrenheit), in Celsius, given
Canada is in the modern scientific age and officially uses the metric
system.  I had just checked an outdoor thermometer (near Joel/Cornwall
between Moscow and Troy) and the temperature was 6 F. or minus 14.4 C.

At first I thought I must have heard the radio announcer wrong, given
Winnipeg has colder average temperatures for this date in October than
Moscow, Idaho.  So I checked, and indeed at 3 AM in Winnipeg it was 0
Celsius, 26 degree F. warmer than the outdoor thermometer I checked:
