us, was telling ping{ ,.the weather con-
ditions it Toree tp '• ,
' The purpose of the `71ri.sit was really
to clear up a fe*`'mldtinderstandings.
regarding recent weather predictions.
We had been infdrixed, during a Fri;
day 'morning newseaet, that while it
was cloudy that papi ng (it was):,, it
would clear ,up that, afternoon and
Saturday would also be fine. The re-
sult of the newscast was that we left
our. raincoat at :homer The final re -
Suit was that we were soaked during
F. riday afternoon',, Friday • night and
Saturday morning.;.' 'e• felt that some
explanation or apology ought to 'be
forthcoming.
, We found our weatherman,: Keith.
T..McLeo at the "Montreal airpoit
• Dorval 8rt
n the top-. floor of the ad-
ministration' bUilding. • While a fore-
caster was making' up a weather map
and various teletype,; operators 'were
running -in and out with copy, he Of-
fered no apology; but art explanation.'
"The forecaster,wae just a little off
the beam that Friday morning,". Mc-
Leod explained. "IIeLwaf too ambi-
tious. You see, we never forecast the
next day's weather in the morning—
we save that for the, noon forecast.
As a' matter of • fact,' we did predict
lake ' in the noon forecast, and sure
enough it did rain.'; We agreed.
"But there are' so many variables
which-imight go w'p1xg' at a moment's
notice," hs went -.on, ; fat really . is re-
llm:Ice& that '.w ,.41;4 accurate most
of the Circe."
We raised our eyebrbw s.
. 85 to 90 Per tent Correct
"Certainly, we're accurate. Take a
look at. this percentage 'sheet. This
is made up by head office in Toronto.
They mark-of--all--•forecasts -in -aecur-•
acy percentages. We've been hitting
an average of 85 to, 90 -,'per cent on
our noon forecasts, hile we've even
had an average of about 81 per cent
on our morning forecasts for the next
day, which we don't •broadcast. The
trouble •is,, people only notice when
we're .wrong on bad ..weather. If it's
fine all the time, .everybody's happy
and they don't give -sus a 'thought, 'But
if it rains- once '`when we said it
wouldn't, they think we're wrong all
the. time." • •
We were suitably impressed and
asked to see just' how • the weather"
office manages to put out a forecast:
We still 'could not detect any crystal
halls le the office.
'McLeod led us into 'the teletype
room, 'where about eight machines-
were
achineswere. chattering away"' e_explained
that the' teletypes were bringing in
messages from all the weather off „t's
and4 teletype -equipped stations in Can-
ada. Two other wires connec+ea the
Montreat office with offices in the
United States,
"It's something like- an hoer glass.
said McLeod.' "All the weather mes=
sages are funnelled through ,this of-•
fice—incoming and outgoing...tcery
station has an ttppointed Lime to break.
into the wire and file a weather re-
port. It keeps most of the mach:nes
going steadily all das, and 'some. are
on a 24-hour basis. Here's a report
coming in from Toronto now."
Cryptic' Meseaa a-.•
The message read; "62426 25753
702987 20461 80300 55951 73080 801.07."
Which left us wondering if Toronto
were experiencing as much of a flag
as we were.
McLeod began to explain it. ""624
-means Toronto. ' Two and six describe
low• and midd1e• cloud. Then the 25
gives }ie the present weather, telling
us that, they had a shower within the
last hour. Then thea`: tell us about
the visibility, the height of the law
cloud and the amount of it, the wind
direction and speed. the past weather,
the total amount of cloud; the baro-
metric pressure, the temperature, the
humidity, the high cloud, the pressure'
tendency', the dew point, the -direc-
tion of the cloud, the ceiling, visibil-
ity at ceiling; the amount of rain, and
the time the rain stopped.'
We were even more impressed„ but
still skeptical. '
• "After we get the reports in, we
mark them dawn on. a weather map
where the station ie. 'When we get
them all marked clown, we can plot
the weather map."
McLeod brought out a weather map.
It looked as though a battalion of
chickens had traipsed across. the
North American continent, with a few
wandering off to Europe.
It's Really Easy
•
"All these symbols which look like
Egyptian 'hieroglyphics mean sbYne-
thing, believe it or not," McLeod -ex-
plained., hen, after a frirecaster
draws tines rough the places' which
have equal barometric pressure, we
can determine the location of the high
and tow pressure areas: By ,compar-'
'ag this w`.'h previous weather maps;
a•e eau rind nut the direction of the
air masses. Look, it's raining in La-
brador,"
McLeod pointed out that each pub-
lic weaher office—at Halifax, Mont
real, 'Toronto, Winnipeg, Edmonton
Mont-
.real,
• Vancouver—makes up at least
'four weather maps a day—come make
eight. The' Montreal office produces
seven. '1'itese are made up by a staff
of eleven forecasters, ail university
•graduates.

main importance of the weather of -

Limited weather reperts are.. also
received from aircraft, and the Ment-

operated radar station at the airport.
The radar 'eau plot 'thunderstorms
within • a radius of 10 miles and; can
Mao etermine the speed at which
they are''travelling. •
• McLeod doesn't claim that his of-
fice is 'infallible, mainly because the
science of weather forecasting is com-
parlatively ;new. He predicts, howev-
er, that; it ,should .becgme more and
more' accurate as knowledge and
methods are increased and improved.
Although- he has had only seven
years' experience at the game, he is
the senior meteorological officer at
Montreal, whieh gives some indica-
tion of how young"the science is.
• Born 37 years ago, in Beaver, Man.,
McLeod attended the University • of
Saskatchewan, where he graduated.
with a B.A. "Afteer •my graduation I
hadn't made tip my mind what to do,"
he said, "when I Taw an advertise-
ment in the paper to the effect that
the Government was calling for men
with honors in physics and mathema-
tics. I jumped at jt, and took a course
in meteorology." '
The next six years—all during the
war—saw McLeod, stationed at Gan-
der . in..N ewfo und.iand..where .he.. help_
ed to keep -the bombers flying across
the Atlantic. He claims to have man-
aged to leave Gander without any
mental derangement.
