Weather Forecasting Using the University of Michigan Weather Underground
Adapted to the World Wide Web from a file on the University of Michigan Gopher. Another adaptation was done on a file describing techniques for making weather observations at the schools so the students can contribute their own observations to the online database. Weather forecasting is a science and an art. To make a good forecast you must know some meteorology and have a hunch what is going to happen based on experience. Forecasting temperature and precipitation will be discussed here since they are the most relevant parameters to the public. Before attempting to perform a weather forecast, one should understand a few key concepts in atmospheric science. These concepts include:
  • Synoptic scale (large scale) meteorology: Air masses, fronts, and pressure systems.
  • Mesoscale (local scale) meteorology: Effects of topography, bodies of water, the urban heat island, etc.
  • Vertical structure of the atmosphere: How and why pressure, temperature, and density decrease with altitude. The following discussion will assume the reader is familiar with these concepts.

    Before hostilities began the staff of the forecasting section at headquarters comprised the supervising meteorologist, Mr H. E. Camm, four duty forecasters, the same number of meteorological assistants, two general assistants and a messenger, but, in order to meet the heavy demands of service formations and essential industries, the establishment was increased during the war by the addition of one senior forecasting officer, a meteorological assistant and three other persons. In 1940, also, a small subsection was formed to attend to preparation and distribution of weather ciphers and recoding tables. It was placed under the control of a former Commonwealth Meteorologist in Mr W. A. Watt, who volunteered to return from retirement for the purpose. People in Bright Sparcs Watt, William Shand

Reg could well be considered as a father figure to many 'met techs' as he was the first recruited Radio Mechanic to enter Bureau service in 1948. His extensive 40 year service stretches unbrokenly back to the years of WWII and has encompassed the entire field of maintenance, siting and installation of the Bureau's electronic observational equipment. It could well be said that if there was a radio, a radiosonde or a radar installed somewhere then 'Stoutie' had a hand in it. His recollections of those early years make interesting reading. With the passing of Allan Cornish and Bill Brann I shall endeavour to give my personal reminiscences as best as I can over my 40 years. I could miss some names so please excuse. I have fond memories of the Directors that I worked for over the years.

    By tradition, meteorology is divided into four branches: physical, dynamical, synoptic, and applied meteorology. Physical meteorologists deal with such areas as the physics of rain formation, atmospheric electricity, and atmospheric optics; dynamical meteorologists work in such areas as the mathematical representation of atmospheric flow patterns and the numerical prediction of these patterns; synoptic meteorologists are involved with the description of atmospheric disturbances and with weather forecasting; and applied meteorologists deal with the application of meteorological and climatological knowledge to such areas as agriculture, architecture, ecology, and air pollution. The undergraduate program provides a broad overview of these branches of meteorology while graduate students are encouraged to specialize in one of them. Meteorologists are needed in research, forecasting, and operational positions to study, interpret and predict weather and climate processes and patterns and to relate these to human activities. Severe storms, floods, droughts and air pollution are examples of atmospheric phenomena, which influence health, safety, transportation, agriculture, and business activities.

    Meteorological Training
    Introduction: The scope of work of the Hong Kong Observatory has expanded considerably through the years. It now provides weather forecasting, tropical cyclone warning and various other meteorological services to meet the needs of shipping, aviation, industries and the general public. It is also involved in a wide range of other activities such as seismology, physical oceanography, radiation monitoring and assessment and the determination of the official time in Hong Kong. Training in these subjects, which are specialized in nature, is not normally available in local institutions. The department therefore organizes a comprehensive training programme of its own. Course on Meteorology of Southeast Asia (3 weeks) The Course on Meteorology of Southeast Asia aims at providing the candidates with the necessary knowledge on the meteorology of Southeast Asia and in particular, Hong Kong to prepare them for operational forecasting duties in the Central Forecasting Office of the Hong Kong Observatory. Local forecasting techniques and operational procedures will be emphasized. Qualifications for enrolment: Degree-holder of a science or engineering subject or WMO Class III meteorological personnel with equivalent knowledge in Physics and Mathematics, and at least 2 years relevant experience or equivalent and proficiency in written and spoken English.

    College of Science and Engineering Undergraduate Programs
    The undergraduate program in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at San Francisco State University is administered by the Department of Geosciences. The BS in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences is unique among atmospheric and oceanic science degrees across the country in that students in both concentrations take a common 25-unit core of coursework designed to investigate the interactions between the atmosphere and oceans. The degree has six emphases within the two concentrations with specific course groupings for students interested in either meteorology or oceanography. The American Meteorological Society (AMS) has drafted a list of criteria to which major programs in atmospheric sciences must adhere in order to meet academic requirements. The curriculum for the meteorology concentration was developed on the bases of these criteria. Students should consult with an adviser before enrolling in the major and before planning a course of study. The adviser helps the student select the emphasis which best meets the employment and career goals of the student.
    Facilities
    The campus of SFSU lies within the city of San Francisco, on the San Francisco Peninsula in a spectacular setting overlooking the Pacific Ocean. SFSU's Department of Geosciences, part of the College of Science and Engineering and an affiliate of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, is housed on the fifth and sixth floors of Thornton Hall.
