AIRSHIP COULD NOT BE TOLD OF BIG STORM Warning Signals Would Get to Shenandoah Too Late. Bu Times Special WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.—Warning of the storm that wrecked the pride of the Navy and cost the lives of fourteen brave men could not have been flashed to the Shenandoah by radio, because of the quickness with which it arose. This is the opinion of experts of the Weather Bureau, who assert that the Shenandoah would certainly have been warned and the disaster possibly averted if the storm could have been forecast. The public generally would be surprised to learn of the nature and extent of the meteorological service of the Weather Bureau in aid of aviation. and that special accommodations are provided in the forecast room for representatives of the air service of the Army and Navy. Service Widespread t Telegraphic and radio weather reports come in twice a day to the forecaster from about 275 observing stations in all parts of the country ,nd from Canada. As fast as they are received, these representatives of flying services copy on their charts any information important to aviators, and telephone the route forecasts directly to certain flying fields. At times, special service is asked for and received by fields undertaking some unusual flying feat. Furthermore, the full system of morning and afternoon telegraphic weather reports received at Washington and the regular and special forecasts are sent by messenger to the Navy Department and are promptly sent by telegraph or wireless to Lakehurst for use by the Navy meteorological officer at that place. Danger Signs Rushed Conditions which are unusual or dangerous for flyers receive prompt attention at the Washington forecasting station and at each of the' other four district forecast centers, located at Chicago, New Orleans, Denver and San Francisco. Weather information, forecasts and warnings for the group of States comprised within a district are issued from these centers, always with aviation interests in mind. Direct service is given as conditions and facilities warrant. Local service also is given by officials at about 135 field stations of the Weather Bureau. It must be borne in mind in connection with the hazards of flying that the most any meteorological service can do is to give information and warnings; aviators frequently disregard warnings of approaching storms or other poor flying conditions, believing themselves competent to fly in spite rs unfavorable weather, just as a ship's captain may put out to sea fully armed with knowledge of bad conditions ahead, but sure of his ability to manage his vessel nevertheless, or hoping for better conditions than those predicted. Gives Air Data Radio service is supplied twice daily for the benefit of marine and aviation interests on the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts. Weather bulletins and forecasts are broadcast from the Arlington (Va.) Naval Rat lo Station at 10:30 a. m. and at \0:50 p. m. They consist of reports •>n surface conditions and upper air lata based on the regular 8 a. m. ind 8 p. m. observations cf the Weather Bureau. These bulletins include any reports received too late for the regular morning or evening forecast, and as a second feature summarize general atmospheric conditions, barometric readings at high and low centers, wind and weather forecasts for offshore
