[edit] Sister Cities

As of mid-2006, Morgan Hill is in the process of adding two more Sister Cities: Headford, in County Galway, Ireland 53°28′00″N, 9°5′60″E (53.4667, -9.1000)^GR1, and Mizuho, Japan, on the island of Hokkaido 44°22′0″N, 142°22′60″E (44.3667, -142.3833)^GR1. See article in The Pinnacle, a local paper. —Quicksilver^{T @} 18:58, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Snowfall

Snow falls more then once every 20 years at the lowest level. More like once every 5 years. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 198.105.65.197 (talk • contribs) 13:49, 15 January 2007 (UTC).

And your point is ... ? Thanks for posting that non sequitur on the Talk page, and not in the article. —Quicksilver^{T @} 04:22, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

It's not a non-sequitur -- under "Climate", the article reads "Snowfall is rare, about once every 20 years". I didn't post the comment above, and don't have any data, but having lived in Morgan Hill for about 15 years (1978-1993), I think it's probably closer to 5 than 20.

Having lived in the local area since 1967 — 40 years — in that time I remember snow on the ground in town exactly twice. (That's not counting snow on the surrounding hills above 1500 ft elevation, which happens at least a couple of times every year.) Anyhow, see the external link to Factual Information from www.city-data.com, that bears this information out, presumably derived from NOAA data. The snowfall chart shows December-January snowfall almost, but not quite, zero. For an official assessment for nearby San Jose, California, see the NOAA Technical Memorandum NWS WR-259, under "Climate", so I don't get accused of doing "original research". I'd say "... about once every 20 years" is a fairly good generalization of the situation. —Quicksilver^{T @} 01:30, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
