Thats right, the Met Office in the UK, who usually forcast our wonderful, yet often wet weather have been a great help this week. I had a quiery recently as to the weather patterns on certain events in Robert D’Onston Stephenson’s life. In fact he had written about these events and several versions of this story exist. I had began dissecting this story some week ago and had already contacted several agencies for help, when I thought I would try to ascertain weather patterns on these nights he mentions. This would mean a trip to the local studies library and countless hours reading through the old newspapers, a task which is fun, but draining on the eyes! Imagine my suprise when I learnt that the Met keeps these records on file. Not only were they quick to respond but very helpful, and although I have yet to recieve the records, I have every faith they will be here shortly. Thank you! |
