Greg Janzen: Wind Chill and Wednesday Morning

greg janzen: It was not pretty out here, according to Hamilton Spectator. Some heavy snow squalls, zero visibility, and these people are walking north straight into the wind, Greg Janzen said. Nineteen asylum-seekers braved a fierce blizzard and whiteout conditions on the open prairie to cross into Canada near the Manitoba border community of Emerson, the area's reeve said Wednesday. I think they walked almost right through Emerson without knowing they were here. Winds were gusting up to 80 kilometres an hour overnight, which created a wind chill of -28 C. Visibility was so poor, highways in the area were closed until early Wednesday morning. Two people were found Tuesday night, Janzen said, and the other 17 were discovered huddled together shortly after sunrise in a carport at an old golf course. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
