Thank you, kind sir!! And why the airport? I remember in the 60's reading of temps were stated to be from the Heart of Atlanta hotel. Can't remember if that was radio, or tv, or what, but I remember the Heart of Atlanta was used to tell what the temps were in Atl. As I recall that was down near the old Auditorium. And did the Weather Bureau have an office out at the airport, before readings were automated? Were they involved in air safety weather all along, and just gave official readings as an aside? Was some intern out there using a snow board every time there was something frozen? I can just imagine some one measuring 1/2 inch of official snow out at the old airport, then driving home to Cartersville to find 6 inches, lol. T
