Busy Day At 6288 Feet

The Meteorologist From ABC On The Tower
It’s been a busy day up on the summit and it is not over yet. This afternoon, we had the meteorologists from ABC visit the observatory. While they were here we gave them a tour of the observatory and showed them our new Extreme Mount Washington museum. During their visit the weather even cooperated and gave them a taste of the extreme conditions that are common for the summit, but abnormal for New York City metro area. Now that the meteorologists from ABC have left, we are getting ready to host the Sunset Soiree. Here’s hoping that the stormy weather we are having today becomes more subdued. The rain, gusty winds, and foggy conditions we are currently seeing, might not give us great views of the sunset. However when members and fans of the observatory get together, it is bound to be a good time!
