Haida (1939) — Discussion: Questions, Comments and Coordination

Post by Randi »




On the weather page, please enter: date, locations, distances (nautical miles and tenths), courses, and all the weather data in the columns outlined in red in the spreadsheet.
It is not necessary to record State of the Sea.
However, ice mentioned in the weather grid should be transcribed using the magenta Sea column.

On the events page please enter: ice, location information, and sailing information.
Aurorae, volcanic, and seismic activity should be reported in the forum.
The names of US Navy and Coast Guard ships met should be noted. This gives the science team a chance to compare weather readings. You can include all ships mentioned in a single entry without a time or any additional data.
Other events are optional.

One person can do both weather and events (Stream 1), but the system also allows one person to do the weather page (Stream 1) and a second person to do the events page (Stream 3).
Unlike in OW3, where three transcriptions were required for each page, we are doing only one transcription per page.

Every transcriber needs to enter the date.
The date is used to organize the pages.



See Haida — General for some general background and discussion.
See Haida — Examples for a quick introduction to transcribing or a refresher.

See Transcribing Guide to learn how to transcribe the data.
Post in Ask Questions Here or this topic if you have questions.

1939 – The largest single fire loss in Juneau’s history occurred at an early hour this morning when the Goldstein Building was completely gutted, leaving only the exterior walls standing. A mattress fire had occurred earlier in one of the apartments and after the blaze was presumed to have been extinguished, the mattress was taken to the basement. There it apparently burst into flames some hours later. The elevator shaft acted as a flue and soon the entire building was in flames. It would probably have spread farther than it did had a Taku wind, which has been blowing for some time, not died just as the fire started. The total loss was set at $250,000.
