Excerpt from Hints to Meteorological Observers: Prepared Under the Direction of the Council of the Royal Meteorological Society
Meteorological observations to be of scientific value must be made on a uniform plan, otherwise the results will not be mutually comparable. The Royal Meteorological Society insists on such uniformity, and accepts observations from those persons only who comply with its requirements, and whose instruments on inspection are found to be satisfactory as regards both their quality and manner of exposure.
The Stations of the Royal Meteorological Society are: (1) "Second Order" Stations (sometimes called "Normal Climatological" Stations), at which the observations are taken twice daily, at 9 a. m. and 9 p. m.; (2) "Climatological" Stations, at which the observations are taken once daily, at 9 a. m.; and (3) Stations at which one or more elements only are observed.
When possible, observations are also taken at 3 p. m. at all stations.
Instruments.
The necessary instruments for a "Second Order" Station are: - Standard Barometer; Maximum Thermometer; Minimum Thermometer; Dry-bulb Thermometer; Wet-bulb Thermometer; Stevenson Thermometer Screen; and Rain Gauge.
At a "Climatological" Station the instruments required are: - Maximum Thermometer; Minimum Thermometer; Dry-bulb Thermometer; Wet-bulb Thermometer; Stevenson Thermometer Screen; and Rain Gauge. At each station the Stevenson Screen is to contain the four thermometers mentioned.
It is desirable to have also a Minimum Thermometer (graduated on the stem, without attached scale) for terrestrial radiation; one or more Earth Thermometers; and a Sunshine Recorder. A Barograph; a Self-recording Rain Gauge; and an Anemometer (or preferably, an Anemograph) are useful additions.
Intending observers should purchase only the best class of instruments, and not those of a cheap or worthless character. The instruments should be verified at the National Physical Laboratory, so that the corrections for index error may be known. The thermometers must have the scales etched on the tube.
