Lightship Daily Observations

Observations taken on board lightships along the United States coasts from 1936 - 1983. Generally 4-6 observations daily. Also includes deck logs, which give indication of ships in transit as well as additional weather phenomena. Scanned from paper held at the National Climatic Data Center. This library compliments the 'NARA Lightship Daily Observations' library, which covers an earlier period.
