About National Weatherman's Day
John Jeffries was born on February 5, 1744. He is considered America�s first �Weatherman�. It was Jeffries who first began logging daily weather occurrences in Boston and providing reports to the population. In 1784 he made the first weather analysis using a balloon.
National Weatherman�s Day is observed each February 5 as a reminder of Jeffries contributions and in recognition of the work done by today�s meteorologists in monitoring climate forecasts, providing warnings of major weather issues and helping to keep people safe the world over.
