Corner Brook

The area was surveyed by Captain James Cook in 1767. The Captain James Cook Historic Site stands on Crow Hill overlooking the city.{{cite web|url=http://www.newfoundlandlabrador.com/PlanYourTrip/Detail/210593|title=Newfoundland and Labrador Tourism website|website=newfoundlandlabrador.com|access-date=5 March 2019}} By the middle of the 19th century, the population of Corner Brook was less than 100, and the inhabitants were engaged in fishing and lumber work.{{cite web|title=Fast Facts & History|url=http://www.cornerbrook.com/default.asp?mn=1.22.80|publisher=City of Corner Brook|access-date=2014-10-12|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141017193524/http://www.cornerbrook.com/default.asp?mn=1.22.80|archive-date=2014-10-17}}

The area was originally four distinct communities, each with unique commercial activities: Curling, with its fishery; Corner Brook West (also known as Humber West or Westside) with its retail businesses; Corner Brook East (also known as Humbermouth and the Heights) with its railway and industrial operations; and Townsite (known as Corner Brook) to house employees of the pulp and paper mill, laid out in 1923 by Thomas Adams using Garden City principles.Richard Symonds (2001), [https://web.archive.org/web/20060626054624/http://www.heritagefoundation.ca/docs/townsite.pdf Architecture and Planning of the Corner Brook Townsite 1923-1925], Heritage Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador In 1956, these four communities were amalgamated to form the present-day City of Corner Brook.

Between 1948 and 1958, about 70 people from Latvia and Germany settled in Corner Brook. They came as part of then Premier Joseph Smallwood's New Industries program. They built and worked at North Star Cement and the Atlantic Gypsum Plant. (For more history on the subject, see Latvians and Baltic Germans in Corner Brook.)

Corner Brook has a humid continental climate (Dfb) typical of most of Newfoundland. It is warmer in summer than St. John's due to less maritime exposure, whereas winters are colder than in the provincial capital. In terms of its overall climate, it is very maritime-like, especially considering how the climate is in mainland Canada on similar latitudes. Precipitation is heavy year-round but highest in December and January and lowest in April and May, with relatively dry, stable conditions extending into July many years.

The Corner Brook area lies in an especially heavy snow belt because of cold Arctic air masses from mainland Canada, coming from the west or northwest, crossing the waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and picking up moisture, resulting in "sea-effect" snow (similar to "lake effect" snow in US locations like Muskegon and Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan). The "sea effect" snow comes in addition to the heavy snow that can accompany mid-latitude storms, called "nor'easters," that approach the area from the U.S. Northeastern and New England states. Such storms can bring high winds and heavy precipitation, with possibly changing precipitation types in a single storm. The combination of intense winter storms and "sea effect" snow make December and January the wettest months on average in Corner Brook. In December and January combined, average snowfall reaches nearly {{Convert|200|cm||abbr=}}.
