Description:"The goal of this study is to document the primary weather observational history of the Presidio that recorded such an important block of knowledge of early California climate. The climatic data and information from the observations made there are readily available for the entire period of record. They may be accessed through the National Climatic Data Center, the Western Regional Climate Center, and the State Climatologist of California. The challenge of this study was to identify the Presidio's role in the development of a federal weather observational program and where it fit in the route that followed from the Army surgeons, the Signal Service Observer Sergeants, the Weather Bureau meteorologists, to the National Weather Service observational network of today"--Introduction.
