Umndeni wakwaNichols waseTasmania uthola umklomelo weminyaka engaphezu kwe-100 yokuqoshwa kwemvula ngenxa ye-BOM

Kafushane:
Sekuyiminyaka engaphezu kweyikhulu umndeni eningizimu yeTasmania uqoqa ngokuzithandela idatha yemvula epulazini lawo eRichmond bese uyithumela e-Bureau of Meteorology.

I-BOM inikeze umndeni wakwaNichols i-100-Year Excellence Award enikezwe ngumbusi waseTasmania ngokuzibophezela kwabo isikhathi eside ekuqoqweni kwedatha yesimo sezulu.

Yini elandelayo?
Umnakekeli wamanje wepulazi uRichie Nichols uzoqhubeka nokuqoqa idatha yemvula, njengomunye wabavolontiya abangaphezu kuka-4,600 ezweni lonke abanikela ngedatha nsuku zonke.

Njalo ekuseni ngo-9 ekuseni, uRichie Nichols uyaphuma ayohlola igeyiji yemvula epulazini lomndeni wakhe edolobheni laseRichmond eTasmania.

Eqaphela inani lamamilimitha, ube esethumela leyo datha ku-Bureau of Meteorology (BOM).

Lokhu kuyinto umndeni wakhe obulokhu uyenzayo kusukela ngo-1915.

“Siqopha lokho encwadini bese sikufaka kuwebhusayithi ye-BOM futhi sikwenza lokho nsuku zonke,” kusho uMnu. Nichols.

Idatha yemvula ibaluleke kakhulu kubacwaningi ukuze baqonde izitayela zesimo sezulu kanye nemithombo yamanzi aseceleni kwemifula, futhi ingasiza ekubikezeleni izikhukhula.

Umndeni wakwaNichols unikezwe umklomelo we-100-Year Excellence Award ngoMsombuluko eGovernment House nguMbusi waseTasmania, uMhlonishwa uBarbara Baker.

Izizukulwane zemiklomelo ezisakhiwa
Leli pulazi selilokhu lisemndenini kaMnu. Nichols izizukulwane ngezizukulwane futhi uthe lo mklomelo usho lukhulu — hhayi kuye kuphela kodwa “kubo bonke labo abangaphambi kwami ​​futhi abagcina amarekhodi emvula”.

“Umkhulu wami omkhulu uJoseph Phillip Nichols wathenga indawo wabe eseyinika indodana yakhe endala, uHobart Osman Nichols, kwathi leyo ndawo yagcina iphethwe ngubaba uJeffrey Osman Nichols, kwabe sekufika kimi,” kusho yena.

UMnu. Nichols uthe ukufaka isandla kudatha yesimo sezulu kuyingxenye yefa lomndeni elihilela ukunakekela imvelo yesizukulwane esilandelayo.

“Kubaluleke kakhulu ukuthi sibe nefa lezizukulwane elidluliselwa ezizukulwaneni ngezizukulwane, futhi sikulangazelela kakhulu lokho maqondana nokutshala izihlahla nokunakekela imvelo,” kusho yena.

Umndeni uqophe idatha ngesikhathi sezikhukhula kanye nesomiso, kanti ngonyaka odlule uthole umphumela ophawulekayo weBrookbank Estate.

“IRichmond ibhekwa njengendawo eyomile kancane, futhi ngonyaka odlule bekuwunyaka wesibili owomile kakhulu emlandweni ngokweBrookbank, okwakungamamilimitha angu-320,” kusho yena.

Umphathi jikelele we-BOM, uChantal Donnelly, uthe le miklomelo ebalulekile ivame ukuba umphumela wemindeni ehlale endaweni ethile izizukulwane ngezizukulwane.

“Kusobala ukuthi kunzima ngomuntu oyedwa ukwenza yedwa iminyaka eyi-100,” kusho yena.

"Kuyisibonelo esihle nje sokuthi singaba kanjani nalezi zingcezu zolwazi zezizukulwane ezahlukene ezibaluleke kakhulu ezweni."

I-BOM ithembele kubavolontiya ukuthola idatha yesimo sezulu

Selokhu i-BOM yasungulwa ngo-1908, izisebenzi zokuzithandela bezilokhu ziyingxenye ebalulekile ekuqoqweni kwayo kwedatha okukhulu.

Njengamanje kunezisebenzi zokuzithandela ezingaphezu kuka-4,600 kulo lonke elase-Australia ezinikela nsuku zonke.

UNksz Donnelly uthe izisebenzi zokuzithandela zibaluleke kakhulu kwi-BOM ukuthola “isithombe esinembile semvula ezweni lonke”.

“Ngenkathi i-Bureau ineziteshi eziningi zesimo sezulu ezizenzakalelayo e-Australia, i-Australia iyizwe elikhulu, futhi akwanele,” kusho yena.

"Ngakho-ke idatha yemvula esiyiqoqa emndenini wakwaNichols ingenye nje yamaphuzu amaningi edatha ahlukene esingawahlanganisa."

UMnu. Nichols uthe unethemba lokuthi umndeni wabo uzoqhubeka nokuqoqa idatha yemvula iminyaka ezayo.

Inzwa yokuqoqa imvula, igeyiji yemvula
