WeatherBrains 101: Weather Brains 101 takes a turn – for the worse probably – with a look at one of the biggest names in the early days of meteorology. Cleveland Abbe was the creator of a network of weather observers and became the first director of the Weather Bureau when it was established in 1870. But he also was the architect of the time zones across the United States. So hear some of his contributions to the early stages of weather forecasting.- This Week In Weather History: The week of October 30th featured the beginning of the Weather Bureau back in 1870 plus three Halloween monster storms. Hear all the details from Mr. Bill Murray in this segment.
