Publication History
Observations for Nov. 1899-May 1900,
and July 1900-Jan. 1932 made and entered by George Washington Carver;
subsequent observers include J. R. Otis, J. R. Mundy, David C. Carter,
Emile N. Hooker, J.R. Munday, H. J. Romm, J. C. Moore, I.T. Hardeman,
J.W. Burney, D. Atkins and B. D. Mayberry.
Scope of coverage
The observations were noted on U.S. Weather Bureau Form no. 1009. The form originally had the title
Voluntary observers' meteorological record. Later the title changed to Cooperative observers' meteorological
record, then Climatological observers meterological record and was revised in 1948 as the Monthly record of climatological observations.
The observer recorded daily observations of minimum and maximum temperature, precipitation, prevailing wind direction,
general character of the weather for that day, any remarks on the day's weather, and the signature of the observer. Weather
Bureau staff later added calculations of monthly means and totals based on the observations.
