It became the official site, right after George and Orvel made their maiden flight at Kitty Hawk. A homesteader the territory of Alaska that had homesteaded the area of the airport, wrote in a daily log the weather conditions for many years prior to the land being purchased for the airport. They utilized his records to build the base of the data bank prior to the establishment of the NWS in the area.Stan Harringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13473861389583701859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16791920.post-91609909431719541162008-10-07T05:10:00.000-08:002008-10-07T05:10:00.000-08:00The spot, in Anchorage, the temperature and condit...The spot, in Anchorage, the temperature and conditions are taken for record is Anchorage International Airport. There was more than 1 place (Campbell Airstrip along with other spots) the temp was taken for an average temp across town. What year TSI Airport became "the" official spot is unclear.john r mclayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16778936698317470467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16791920.post-58356568335427114602008-10-06T22:50:00.000-08:002008-10-06T22:50:00.000-08:00Good to hear you are getting the snow, they are ca...Good to hear you are getting the snow, they are calling for it down here, but looking at the Doppler, that little most westerly point on the highway system is being missed as the front moves across the peninsula and into the LA bowl area just north of us. Referred to your "hmm" link, now that guy knows what he is talking about, he should challenge EGore to a debate! I had never seen the page that you get your data from in regards to annual preecip and records, pretty interesting. The reason I looked at it was to solve the trivia question, I thought the answer would lie within ~ but alas you are groping for the answer yourself. To the best of my limited knowledge, which is quite vast, the weather station in Anchorage remains in the same location - now do you know where it is at? Been there for years, every since I had a little red wagon. For that matter, do you know where the weather station is at in the "Little Hamlet By The Slough"? Keep the snow, I still have fall chores to do.Stan Harringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13473861389583701859noreply@blogger.com
