On July 29, 1928, Leslie G. Gray whom I believe was with the Weather Bureau's San Francisco office was the first Incident Meteorologist to be deployed to the Miller Canyon Fire in the Santa Barbara National Forest. Congratulations to @NWS_IMET_OPS on 24 years of service.
The @NWS Incident Meteorologist program celebrates its 94th Anniversary of providing on site weather support to America’s wildland firefighting efforts!
