Observing Site Histories
EV2 - Observing Site History
Detailed reports prepared for the Midwestern Regional Climate Center under the auspices of the Climate Database Modernization Program. The goal of each report is to trace the observing site history from its beginnings in the 19th century through either the present or the date of station closure. The 82 reports were produced between 2002-2007 by three authors: Steve Doty, retired NCDC meteorologist; Glen Conner, Kentucky State Climatologist emeritus; and Gary Grice, retired deputy director of the National Weather Service.

Purpose | In the late 1990s NCDC realized the need to host digital images of weather and climate records on the internet. As a result, EV2 was developed as a key system for providing access to the millions of original source data images in the NCDC archives. With its upload and index capability, EV2 also enables the continuation of NCDC's commitment to make more of its weather and climate data available online so that users across the world can view climate and weather records held in the NCDC archives. |
