MR. WEATHER MAN 🌦️ YOU'RE AWESOME! 5 FANTASTIC FACTS FOR THE 5TH!
Have you heard that February 5th honors a profession that some say is as much guessing as it is science? I’ll tell you what it is in due time - but first...
Speaking of TIME - On this day in 1924 - 101 years ago today the Royal Greenwich Observatory started broadcasting the first TIME signals from the famous Greenwich MEAN Time! I guess you could say they were pretty MEAN about keeping everyone on schedule!
And hold onto your sweet tooth, because today is also World Nutella Day! This chocolatey-hazelnut spread was invented in Italy, and it become a global sensation! Did you know the first jar was sold in 1964 over 60 years ago? Talk about spreading joy!
Oh, and here's something that'll make your jaw drop faster than a METEORITE - on this day in 1971, astronauts Alan Shepard and Edgar Mitchell walked on the moon during Apollo 14! They spent 33 hours on the lunar surface, which is a pretty LONG moonwalk - eat your heart out, Michael Jackson!
Have you heard that female monarch butterflies can lay up to 500 eggs at one time! Talk about having your wings full with the kids!
The #1 song on February 5th 1962 was Peppermint Twist - Part I by Joey Dee and the Starliters.
And finally...
February 5th is National Weatherperson's Day (also known as National Weatherman's Day) it honors all individuals working in meteorology, weather forecasting, and broadcast meteorology. The day also recognizes volunteer storm spotters, observers, and others who work in the weather field. This annual holiday commemorates the birthday of John Jeffries, born on this day in 1744. Dr. Jeffries, a scientist and a surgeon, is considered one of America's first weather observers. He kept weather records from 1774 to 1816. Additionally, Jefferies pioneered the field of ballooning in the United States and took his first balloon observation in 1784.
