Everyone is the protagonist of life and the protagonist of the times. Today we focus on them - meteorologists. 1 “Should I bring an umbrella when I go out tomorrow?” “I want to go out for a run, is the weather good?” “How many clouds are considered ‘overcast’?” “What does ‘locally’ refer to?”… In daily life, weather seems to be a topic that people cannot avoid. There is a group of people who work to give "answers". They read the clouds and observe the sky, looking for patterns in the changing wind and clouds; they chase time and issue warnings before rain, snow, floods and other disasters hit. They are meteorologists who have foresight about the weather. There is a saying in the forecasting circle: inaccuracy is absolute, accuracy is relative. While getting closer and closer to accurate data, they are also achieving the sublimation of their own lives. 2 As the saying goes, “There are unexpected events in the weather.” In order to turn the “unpredictable” into “measurable” in the hands of the public, meteorologists have challenged the “unpredictable” time and again. When was the last time you launched a balloon? They launch them every day. Launching atmospheric high-altitude observation balloons is a 365-day job that cannot be missed for a single day and cannot be wrong even once. When people are "hiding from typhoons", they are going against the flow. Wherever the typhoon goes, they follow, fighting on the front line of wind and rain day and night, bringing us the latest weather forecast, rain or shine, always consistent. If the snow is too deep, they will use their hands and feet to crawl over to measure. To ensure the normal operation of the observation work, they braved the wind and snow in the knee-deep snow, trudged through the snow, carried out the observation work, and kept the years peaceful by carrying heavy loads. Do you know what it feels like to climb a ladder covered with frost? They do. At the Guangmingding Meteorological Station at the top of Huangshan Mountain at an altitude of 1,840 meters, they climbed a ladder covered with frost in a force 8 gale to remove the wind speed sensor for maintenance to ensure the normal operation of the equipment. The wind and frost are like knives, carving out a more tenacious and precise meteorological career. Chasing the wind and snow, generations of meteorological workers go against the tide to continuously explore and accumulate experience, so that more people can be saved from the suffering of disasters and make the changing winds and clouds predictable and forecastable. 3 As the Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympics came to a successful conclusion, people are still obsessed with many stories inside and outside the stadiums. One detail related to meteorologists is impressive. On February 13, heavy snow fell in Beijing, Zhangjiakou and other places, and many events adjusted their schedules. Yang Shuan, vice chairman of the Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee, was very confident: "As early as February 4, the meteorological department predicted this snowfall process. Before the 11th, we had basically determined the snowfall period and magnitude for each venue and made a plan." Two days later, the sky in Beijing was clear. "Best Weather Service Ever", Chinese meteorologists deserve such praise.
