Hourly, Daily, Monthly, and Yearly Surface Weather Data for Teddington and Richmond (Kew Observatory) England (1885-1910)
Entry ID: NCL00189_195

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: The Teddington surface data resides in 2 books, 'Teddington, England, National
Physical Laboratory Report (1901-1910)' (C/de35 A1). Data contained in these
books are tables of hourly, daily, monthly and annual surface weather data for
Teddington England during the period 1901 to 1910. The tables contain hourly
data determined for a period for absolute maximum and minimum pressure, wind
speed, and direction, and determined individually for wind speed and direction.
Tables contain daily data, determined for a period for mean wind speed and
direction; and absolute maximum and minimum pressure, temperature, and
precipitation. Tables contain the following monthly data, determined for a
period: mean pressure, temperature, cloudiness, wind speed and direction and
vapor pressure; mean maximum and minimum pressure, and temperature; absolute
maximum and minimum pressure, temperature, precipitation, wind direction and
speed, and sunshine; total precipitation. Tables contain annual data,
determined for a period for total precipitation.

The Richmond surface data resides in 2 books, 'Kew Observatory Report (1885,
1894-1895, 1897)' (C/de 75 Aok). These books contain tables of hourly, daily
and monthly surface weather data for Richmond, England for 1885, 1894-1895 and
1897. Tables contain the following hourly data, determined individually: vapor
tension; maximum and minimum pressure; AND absolute maximum and minimum
temperature. Tables contain daily data, determined individually for absolute
maximum and minimum precipitation and sunshine. Tables contain the following
monthly data, determined individually: mean pressure, temperature, and
cloudiness; mean maximum and minimum temperature; absolute maximum and minimum
precipitation and sunshine; total precipitation and sunshine; and number of
days with winds from each direction.

These books are part of the foreign meteorological data collection held by the
NOAA Central Library in Washington, DC. Information in this collection dates
back to the 18th century for daily, monthly, seasonal, and annual tabular
summaries, and the 19th century for weather maps. These data are the result of
foreign exchange agreements, but the collection has not been updated since
1983.
