Given that hats are all the rage, at least for those who value their ears in this climate, let’s take a look at this avant-garde story printed by the Montreal Gazette on January 10, 1913, under the title “A Striking Feature of Women’s Headgear. spring be ‘futuristic’ hats. “

Futurist painters have managed to cover themselves with ridicule, but Parisian hatters believe that futurist hats will have better luck. There won’t be a particular shape or form, but some of the promised color combinations are almost too bold to believe. A picot or horsehair straw hat will look bright blue, cherry, indigo, and emerald combined with Spanish yellow. Fruits and flowers will come back to favor as ornaments.

Fast forward to 2021: Environment Canada forecasts sun with a high of -19 C. Wind sensation near -24.

In the evening: Gust probability, minimum -19 C.

An extreme cold warning remains in effect.
