We are pleased to announce the availability of the first set of station
histories produced through the Development of Climatological Station
Histories Project funded through the Climate Database Modernization
Program (CDMP) of the United States' National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration's (NOAA) National Climatic Data Center. These documents
are written histories of United States weather observing stations which
started in the 1800s, and include available information about the
station's observers, location, and observing practices. The station
histories are located on NCDC's electronic archive, WSSRD (Web Store
Search Retrieve Display), in the Observing Site History cabinet under
the category Metadata. To request access to this archive, go to
http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/cdmp/wssrd.html (contact Cindy Karl
via e-mail at Cynthia.B.Karl@noaa.gov, and request access to the
Observing Site History cabinet).

The first set includes 29 stations from the CDMP Project and one
additional historical document. The 29 station histories were prepared
by the project's three station history writers, Steve Doty, Gary Grice,
and Glen Conner, with the assistance of many of you. The historical
station history is for Urbana, Illinois USA, and was published by Stan
Changnon and George Boyd as an Illinois State Water Survey Circular in
1963. If you are aware of any other similar station histories
available, please contact Karen Andsager at andsager@uiuc.edu.

The 29 stations are Sacramento CA, San Francisco CA, Naval Observatory
in DC, Washington DC, Peoria IL, Vevay IN, Atchison KS, Leavenworth KS,
Manhattan KS, Louisville KY, Newport Barracks KY, Fort Jesup LA,
Nantucket MA, Portland ME, Duluth MN, Harrisonville MO, Fairbury NE,
Fort Marcy NM, Santa Fe NM, Cincinnati OH, College Hill OH, Mt Auburn
OH, Fort Gibson OK, Fort Washita OK, Portland OR, Austin TX, Burlington
VT, Lunenburg VT, and Cheyenne WY.

If you have pictures and documents regarding station history for United
States stations, particularly for stations which began observations in
the 1800s, please contact Steve Doty at dotydataservices@charter.net.
