| Notes: Just months following the creation of the Atmospheric Environment Service (Environment Canada) from the Meteorological Branch (Department of Transport), a new upper air station was opened on 26 November 1971 near Vernon BC. The photo below was taken at the opening. Another photo and a full write-up on pages 4 to 6 of the November 1971 issue of Zephyr covered the event. |
