The MI-IN border runs between South Bend IN and Niles
MI. In some ways, they're one urban center. Many
people live in one city and shop or work in the other.
South Bend is in the part of IN that's on North
American Eastern Standard time, that doesn't observe
Daylight Saving Time. So, in the summer, Niles is an
hour ahead of South Bend.

There's always Detroit MI and Windsor ON, the world's
biggest pair of border towns., and the good old home
towns, Port Huron MI / Sarnia ON. They have a lot in
common - weather and their respective economies, for
example. Lots of cross border shopping and local
travel in both places. Ontario radio stations with
significant US audiences give temperatures in both F
and C. WBTI in Lexington is the only US station I've
heard giving temps in C for its Canadian listeners.
And they legally ID as "Lexington-Sarnia-Port Huron"
(US stn with CA in its top of hour ID.)

(Peggy Lee still says that chicks were born to give
you fever, be it Fahrenheit or centigrade, hi.)
