Today, May 4th, is National Weather Observers Day! A lot of networks of people help the National Weather Service achieve its mission of protecting life and property with their observations and weather reports. This network includes: Cooperative (Co-Op) Observers, SKYWARN, CoCoRaHS, and of course you, the public! So, to all of our weather observers and volunteers, THANK YOU!
