This presentation explores the history of weather observation and forecasting, from ancient folklore and Aristotle’s Meteorologica of 340 BCE to today’s high-tech era of satellites, supercomputers and AI-driven models. Bringing in both Canadian and international examples the presenter, a retired meteorologist, highlights pivotal advances such as telegraph networks, meteorological stations and revolutionary digital modelling. This is a zoom class; attendees may watch from the comfort of their own home or attend in person at the Kamloops Sports Council.
