There are not many government observing stations left in our changing Canadian situation. I am a flight service specialist with NAV CANADA. NAV CANADA Flight Service Stations and Flight Information Centres provide represent a fair number of weather observation sites within Canada.


The weather equipment at these sites is second to none for the most part. The information you are presenting is not correct. Environment Canada - Meteorological Services of Canada in turn pays for the data that NAV CANADA Flight Service Stations and Flight Information centres as well as Community Aerodrome Radio Stations Observer/Communicators and contract weather observers as well as other sources. I see that you live in Calgary, Alberta. How is it that you don't know where weather observations come from in Canada?

Barry's Response - Thanks, Kelly, for the update on the changing Canadian situation. I guess I'm not a government insider like you. Here's more of what Nav Canada does.

I am delighted to see your enthusiasm for meteorology and the importance of accurate weather observations in Canada.


Meteorology allows us to understand and predict the weather, which has a huge impact on our daily lives.

Atmospheric science articles cover weather patterns, climate change, severe weather events, and the latest weather prediction technology. Explore these articles to learn more about meteorology, gain insights into weather observation techniques, and stay on top of the latest developments.

This study can be an exciting journey because it allows you to explore the complexities of weather systems, study atmospheric phenomena, and understand how weather impacts aviation, agriculture, and everyday life. Delving into meteorology articles can enhance your professional expertise and help you provide accurate weather information to pilots and others in the aviation industry.

Staying on top of weather research lets you discover new research findings, engage in discussions about climate change, and keep yourself safe. And it plays a vital role in our society, and you can inspire others to learn more about it through your passion for accurate weather observations.

star 		What?!
by: Anonymous

That was a rather incoherent letter by Kelly.
The centers 'provide represent' - what?
And the second paragraph is utterly devoid of meaning.

From Barry - Nevertheless, Kelly made some important points.

starstarstarstar 		good article
by: Amber

this was very interesting, at first i thought this was going to be an article about all the bad things i did to make the air terrible, but turns out it's more about meteorology which is AweSOme. I think it'd be cool to find some radar info on the site and on the parts about air pollution, maybe you should have some more images, etc?

From Barry - Over the past few decades, meteorology has gotten more sophisticated thanks to technology and data collection. With more accurate and detailed weather forecasts, we can better prepare for and respond to extreme weather.

starstarstar 		It's interesting
by: Elle

It took me a second to adjust to there not being any of the great pictures found in nature, at least as a heading. And I find it interesting that one of the facts is wrong, and you got called out, which makes me want to go hunt for other things that may not be correct, and the layout is pretty easy to do that.

From Barry - It's great you're willing to do your own research and verify the facts. It takes a lot of courage to do that, but it's a great way to develop your critical thinking skills. There are probably more mistakes I can find, and it would be fun to fix them.

It's also a great way to learn more about the topic. This is a win-win.

Thanks for the article, it was very interesting.

From Barry - Some might say It was like unlocking a treasure trove of information.

But I'm more humble than that.
