I was wondering if you knew where to get any information on weather and ocean conditions of the Oregon Coast around the year?
librarian: Hi. I'm just finishing up with another person. Can you wait a moment?
anonymous: Yes, no problem
librarian: Ok I'm back
librarian: Let me see if I can find a site. Do you have a particular location on the coast?
anonymous: No particular location, however I was thinking more of the northwest coast from astoria down to about cannon beach
librarian: Okay.
librarian: And when you say around the year, do you mean you want averages for each month, or an ongoing report on the day's weather, as the year comes?
anonymous: Yes data on each month through the year would be helpful
librarian: okay
librarian: I'll be back
anonymous: thank you
librarian: you input a city, state
anonymous: no I haven't
librarian: And from the first page of today's data, you can link to averages.
anonymous: I see that would be very helpful
anonymous: do you know how far back the data goes? if I needed a specific time, for example
librarian: Just below "current conditions" is a link to "weather history for this location>"
librarian: How far back do you need to go?
librarian: It looks like they go to 2005
anonymous: I was only needing to go back about five years or so
librarian: I believe the natl weather service does this also, but probably farther back in time. Shall I look for that site?
anonymous: sure, that would be great
librarian: ok
anonymous: great, thank you
librarian: I'm not gatting data from them for astoria or cannon beach, unfortunately.
anonymous: I think that both of these sites will help me meet my needs
anonymous: oh okay, did you from whether underground?
librarian: Okay. well, be ure to check with us again if you don't find it.
anonymous: weather, sorry
librarian: yes, weather underground has data for 2005 on for astoria
librarian: NOAA might, if we keep looking
anonymous: that's okay I think that I will give weather underground a try
anonymous: thank you for your help
librarian: Oh good. I hope that works for you
librarian: You're very welcome!
librarian: Bye
anonymous: goodbye
