Weather Service Aids Aviators In 1922 Year
The Weather Bureau boosted aviation support in the past fiscal year with daily forecasts for 14 zones issued to Army Navy and postal officials and to flying fields. Upper air forecasts were broadcast for almost all zones and detailed routes Washington to Norfolk Long Island and Dayton began January 12. Aviators received weather by telephone and telegraph with Navy and Air Service cooperation to maximize safety and brief prep. Large wheat and barley crop declines in Spain were reported, with 1922 wheat production at 125,478,000 bushels from 1,507,000 acres and barley at 77,428,000 bushels from 4,080,000 acres, versus 1921 figures.
