Summary edit

Description

National Weather Service employees from the Weather Forecast Office in Corpus Christi, Texas, install a temperature sensor and a rain gauge for a new volunteer Cooperative Observer at their home in Sinton, Texas. More than 11,000 Cooperative Observers across the United States volunteer their time and effort to maintain daily climate records. Most stations provide temperature and rainfall information, but some also provide soil temperatures, evaporation amounts, and river stages to the National Weather Service. Data and forms received from observers are quality controlled at each Weather Forecast Office and then forwarded to the National Climatic Data Center for archive and publication.

Shown from left to right in the photo are Steve Smart, hydrometeorological technician, and Nick Hampshire, in the Student Career Experience Program.
