VPRS 777 Phenomena and Meteorological Reports, Flagstaff and Melbourne Observatory

The volumes in this series document the activities of the Flagstaff and Melbourne observatories, but also other meteorological stations across Victoria. The volumes consist of both printed publications that are a compendium of weather, climate and other observations (air pressure and temperature, solar radiation, rainfall, humidity, wind, cloudiness and so on), relating to the atmospheric science of meteorology, while others are handwritten records, such as, a daily journal chronicling work and activities as well as inventories of items issued by the observatory for the purposes of facilitating meteorological observations, and a scrapbook containing pasted press clippings and handwritten notes documenting eyewitness accounts of various phenomena seen in the sky such as comets, meteors and lightning.
