Another Green Grant Program
We are planning a special program to finish up the grant year: Mount Washington: Home of the World's Worst Weather to take place Sept. 25 at 7 PM. Eric Pinder, who worked as a weather observer at the Observatory for
seven years, describes the joys and terrors of living in the clouds and
explains Mount Washington's geology and weather. The Observatory crew
find much to enjoy in their icy home - even when it means dealing with
100 mph winds, wandering moose, and odd questions from visitors (Can you
see New Hampshire from here?"). Of course, they are also treated to
spectacular sunsets, spine-tingling thunderstorms, and breathtaking
toboggan runs. For Boston Globe articles go to The Boston Globe (Proquest) and key in "Eric Pinder." You can also visit Eric's homepage to learn more about him:
