On February 9, 1870, Congress and President Ulysses S. Grant passed a law to establish the first national weather service in the United States.  You can read more about the history of weather observations in the US at https://www.weather.gov/timeline.  They are hard at work 24/7/365 to keep us safe as well as to provide information that can change how we manage our time and our wallets.  Thank you for your service to this country!
