GOOD WORK oi THE H E \THER Bl RE \l I ermer Citizen of thi County in the Service Telia of How Warnings Saved Much Property. 1 Too few people realize the great work done by the United States Aeather bureau, through forecasts I and warnings issued to farmers, and | to others regarding the changes .of the weather and the approach of . storms and the directions in which ! they will travel. [ The following letter from a former | citizen of this county tells how wai n । ings were received and sent out of the coming storm which swept a por tion of the gulf country October 18. Mobile, Ala., Nov. 19, I 'hi. Editor Guard After exp< icncing our "little blow” of 115 miles an hour on the 18th of last month, and realiz I ing as I had never before what such u storm means and the value of the . warnings issued. I am sending you a poem, written by Mr. Trautwine of | Philadelphia, Pa., one night recently after reviving a hurricane warning | sent out by the government radio I plant at Arlington. Va. Os the storm of October 18, we re ceived our first “advisory warning" at J o’clock on the morning of the 13th, ■ and at least twice each 'lay thereafter until it had passed inland and dimin .shed, we were advised of its move ment and its probable intensity. As soon as the disturbance had passed through the Yucatan channel into the Gulf .and it was apparent that the middle and northeast Gulf coast would : experience northerly gales, storm warnings were issued for the coast from Carrabelle tn Bay St. Louis, and all interests urged to exercise every i precaution for safety. loiter hurri- I cane warnings were ordered from New Orleans \o Apalachicola. The result was that these warnings, is sued at Washington by the weather bureau, enabled people to prepare for , the coming storm, and Mobile and ; other points weathered a terrific blow with comparatively little damage be l ing done when such, if unheralded, i would have destroyed millions of dol- I lari worth of property, not to mention 1 lives that might have been lost. In the face of such service what do you think of the man who says the weather bureau is a fake and that the money so spent is wasted? I»o you , reckon he believes it. or is he just ; talking?
