Good morning and a happy Tuesday to you!

Cooler weather and some rain have been forecasted this week for the Okanagan-Shuswap. Smoke may still be an issue for some parts of the region but for the most part, we鈥檒l be seeing rain clouds instead of smoky patches.

Fun fact: Cows have 鈥渞egional accents鈥

Language specialists from the studied cows and they found that cows from different herds have different moos.

The issue first came to their attention after dairy farmers noticed their cows made mooing sounds slightly differently.

It turns out, animals can also have 鈥渞egional accents鈥 like humans. A similar phenomenon has been observed in birds, where they had different regional twangs.

The different regional moos are affected by where the cows come from and the others they grow up with, much like how our own accents can be affected by our family and friends.
