Armagh Observatory Marks 230 Years of Recording Weather (bbc.com) 9
Armagh Observatory is marking a very special meteorological milestone as the institute celebrates 230 years of continuous weather observation. From a report: The unbroken tradition of handwritten data makes it the longest sequence of continuous weather information gathered anywhere in the UK and Ireland. Events are being held at Armagh Observatory on Monday to mark the significant anniversary. Nowadays, most weather data is gathered only by automated weather stations, but not in Armagh, where the human touch remains.
The first handwritten recording was made on the evening of 14 July 1795, when a measurement of the temperature and air pressure was recorded on a graph at the observatory that sits above the city of Armagh. The measurement was repeated the next day and every subsequent day for the next 230 years.

..."Armagh," is what the forecaster said when he realized how miserable the weather was going to be that day.

Yes. Except being an illegal immigrant was illegal before "Hitler" came into office. In fact, it was illegal when The Lightbringer was ushering in a new tranformative something something and healing the planet.
