35 Yr Service Award
 
Mrs. Sallye Hayes Borchert of Stuttgart, Arkansas has been a cooperative observer for the National Weather Service for 35 years (as of December, 2000).  She has collected rainfall data on a daily basis.  Her measurements are sent to the National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, North Carolina and eventually published to become a part of the permanent record of the world's weather.

Mrs. Borchert has also been very helpful in severe weather situations.   She has taken the time to report severe weather in her area, with the information used by the National Weather Service to issue more accurate warnings.

For her efforts, Mrs. Borchert received a 35 Year Goverment Emblem from the National Weather Service.
