Government officials announced
recently that observations of city

by adjacent buildings and artificial
heat, are not sufficient for modern
needs.
Cited was the increasing nerd for
Leal.' weather observations representative
nf open air conditions.
The program was instituted Sat-
urday throughout the nation where
there were both city and airport
government weather bureaus in the
same locality.
The downtown office of the
Hrnwnsville bureau, however, will
continue to issue the daily wea’hrr
bureau, conduct hurricane and

ological work.
It will make nne observation a
day for the purpose of checking in-
struments and compiling climat-
ological records. The observations
appearing on the daily weather
bulletin, however, win be taken
from the airpo station records.
The weather bureau here Satur-
day. both at the city and airport
stations, also had its code changed
from words tn numerals in a na-
tion-wide program to conform with
international standards.
