SCHELL'S FINDING WILL AID IN SECURING WEATHER DATA

Weather forecasting will be facilitated if a recent discovery of Irving I. Schell, research associate at the Blue Hill Observatory, works out as expected. The meteorologist will then be able to compute a continuous record of conditions in the important and very active first mile of the atmosphere.

It will be possible to translate mountain observations, such as those taken on Mt. Washington, into data for free air at the same altitude in many different localities. It will be no longer necessary to take expensive airplane flights to obtain this data.
