SUMMARY:Mount Washington Observatory Founding Day
DESCRIPTION:Event Update: Tours of our summit weather station will not be offered on Oct. 15 due to inclement weather. Thank you for understanding! \nOctober 15th is Mount Washington Observatory’s Founding Day! Celebrate our 93rd year by joining us on the summit of Mount Washington and in our North Conway administrative offices: \n\nFree MWOBS weather station tours from 10:00AM to 3:00PM\, located at Mount Washington State Park. (Dependent on weather conditions & Auto Road operations) Auto Road tickets are not provided. You must pay for your own transportation to the summit of Mount Washington.\nGladys Brooks Memorial Library Open House hosted by MWOBS Curator Dr. Peter Crane from 10:00AM to 3:00PM. (Location: Upstairs- MWOBS Administrative Offices\, 2779 White Mountain Highway\, North Conway NH).\n\nOn October 15\, 1932\, Bob Monahan\, Sal Pagliuca\, Alex MacKenzie\, and Joe Dodge set up a permanent presence on the summit. Using funds obtained from a research grant and a few private donors\, the Mount Washington Observatory was formally established\, with a mission of advancing the understanding of weather\, climate\, and the mountain itself. \nJust two years later\, on April 12\, 1934\, the Observatory captured what was then the fastest surface wind speed ever observed by man\, at 231 mph. This thrust Mount Washington into the spotlight and highlighted the value in having a mountaintop weather station. \nDue to their steadfast dedication and the Observatory staff that followed\, this mountaintop weather station remains a unique operation staffed 365 days a year and proudly maintains one of the longest running climate records in North America. Today\, we continue to gather\, disseminate and analyze daily weather data; to contribute to the critical\, long-term weather and climate record essential to scientific understanding of weather and climate in a unique\, extreme environment. Here’s to our 93rd anniversary\, and many more to come! \nWhile we at the Observatory are extremely proud to celebrate our history\, it is only a fraction of what makes the day so special. None of it would have been possible without the support of our members! Thank you to everyone who has had a hand in making the Observatory what it is today\, we genuinely couldn’t do it without you!

SUMMARY:Science in the Mountains: Communicating Climate Change Science\, Effects\, and Solutions at Climate Central
DESCRIPTION:Climate Central Weather & Climate Staff  \nClimate Central\, a policy-neutral\, nonprofit 501(c)(3) research and communication organization\, uses science\, big data\, and technology to make climate change local and personal. By translating complex data and science into compelling visuals and storylines\, they help people see how climate change is affecting the people\, places\, and things that they love–and what they can do about it. Their work spans climate science\, extreme weather\, sea level rise\, energy\, and related topics. In collaboration with TV meteorologists\, journalists\, other trusted messengers\, and decision-makers\, Climate Central focuses on connecting people to reliable information about what’s happening now–and why it matters.   \nJoin us to learn about Climate Central’s work in communicating climate change\, including new tools developed to help the public understand impacts happening today.

SUMMARY:LENE x HEAT Heliophysics Professional Development for Educators
DESCRIPTION:Learning Ecosystems Northeast (LENE) is pleased to announce a professional development event coming up this summer. This event\, held August 10 & 11 at and around Mount Washington Observatory (MWOBS)\, will give you the opportunity to learn more about the Sun-Earth system and how to share this knowledge with your learners. \nAt this event\, MWOBS and educators from NASA HEAT will conduct workshops designed to engage you directly with Sun science in various forms. On Day 1 (held on the summit of Mount Washington\, with transport provided)\, educational workshops are expected to center around weather\, climate\, and connections to the Sun. Day 2\, held at MWOBS’s offices in North Conway\, is expected to be a rapid progression through the Helio Club Study Unit. This collection is geared towards a middle school audience. \nOvernight accommodations for those travelling 70miles or more will be provided between Day 1 and Day 2. Rooms will be double occupancy. \nMeals will be provided during workshop hours. A $200 stipend will be available for those that attend the full workshop. Click Here to Register!  \nDay 1 address- 1 Mt Washington Auto Rd\, Gorham\, NH 03581 \nDay 2 address- 2779 White Mountain Highway\, North Conway NH 03860 \nPlease reach out to Keri Moskowitz with any questions- kmoskowitz@gmri.org

SUMMARY:Science in the Mountains: Summer 2026 Research Round-Up at Mount Washington Observatory
DESCRIPTION:Register for the Zoom Here \nAlex Libby\, Aspen Medvec\, Aubrey Palmer\, Kristen Mihalcik; Mount Washington Observatory Summer Summit Interns  \nJoin us on Zoom or in person at the Observatory’s administrative offices in North Conway Village to learn all about the current research investigations that cover a range of fascinating topics: \nHow Do Hikers Interpret the Hazards of Mount Washington? \nThe Observatory’s Higher Summits Forecast communicates a range of dangerous hiking hazards\, but how do hikers really interpret these? Is a “moderate\,” “heightened\,” or “elevated” risk of hypothermia worse? Using a survey\, this project tested hundreds of language combinations on the people who read our forecast\, setting the record straight on what language is confusing versus clear\, helping to improve the Higher Summits Forecast Discussion.  \nCharacterizing Atmospheric Environments Favorable for Mountain Wave-Associated Turbulence Near Mount Washington \n“Mountain waves” are a severe atmospheric disturbance that occurs when strong winds flow perpendicular to mountain ranges\, resulting in significant turbulence downwind of mountains posing hazards to aviation. This research investigates how well near surface observations and vertically derived profiles can be used to characterize conditions favorable for mountain wave- associated turbulence near Mount Washington.  \nAtmospheric River Occurrence and Associated Fall-Season Precipitation as a Function of Madden-Julian Oscillation Phase in Northern New England \nAn Atmospheric River (AR) is essentially a “river in the sky” that can produce massive amounts of localized precipitation throughout the United States. The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) is an area of enhanced thunderstorm activity that originates over the Indian Ocean\, Maritime Continent\, and Pacific Ocean. As this area of thunderstorms moves around the tropics\, heat is released into the atmosphere\, creating large-scale waves that eventually propagate into North America. In response\, storm tracks and the jet stream change\, thus\, influencing whether ARs can form and how they travel. While ARs commonly occur around the West Coast of the U.S\, approximately 30-35% of annual precipitation over the broad eastern United States (EUS) can be attributed to AR activity\, and ARs are responsible for more than 60% of extreme precipitation events and over 70% of flood events across the EUS (Dong et al. 2024). This study examines whether certain MJO phases are associated with more frequent atmospheric rivers and whether these ARs produce greater watershed-averaged precipitation.  \nCan PACE-Derived Vegetation and Pigment Indices Track Fall Foliage Progression Across Selected Forested Areas of the White Mountains? \nFall foliage progression is difficult to monitor consistently across the White Mountains as assessments often rely on PhenoCam visuals and eyewitness reports. This project uses NASA’s PACE satellite vegetation and pigment indices to test whether changes in greenness\, chlorophyll\, carotenoid\, and anthocyanin signals can capture the seasonal transition from green canopy to peak color to leaf-off. By comparing PACE-derived index trends with Bartlett PhenoCam observations from 2024 and 2025\, this work evaluates whether satellite data can serve as a useful proxy for tracking fall foliage progression in northern New England.
