About the Collection

This collection includes two handwritten volumes documenting daily weather observations at the Stillwater Agricultural Experiment Station from 1893 to 1940. Recorded by early observers connected with Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical College, the entries capture temperature, precipitation, wind patterns, and overall conditions for each day, along with vivid notes describing events such as dust storms, heavy snows, and unusual seasonal changes. Together, these records offer a rare and detailed view of local climate history in Stillwater and Payne County during a period of major agricultural development in Oklahoma.
