This is a nice little slice of Americana. After seeing the documentary "Unbeaten", it prompted me to explore more online...

About this Exploration:

Storm develops east of EdsonAn adage says, "Everyone talks about the weather, but no one does anything about it.” At the Goodland Weather Forecast Office of the National Weather Service on Armory Road, they do something about it. They predict it and warn about its worst impacts.
The weather service provides weather advisories, watches and warnings about severe weather, as well as the seven-day forecast.
 
 
National Weather Service Forecast OfficeWeather Forecast Office allows tours from Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Call ahead to 78-5-899-2360. If the would-be tour group is small, under five people, a time could be worked out on the day of the call, providing the weather is quiet. For more than five people, please call a week in advance. Especially if children will be included, request to see special weather equipment, such as tornado machines and weather balloons.
If the weather turns severe, please call before coming to confirm that the weather forecasters are still able to host tours.
Tour group members will be able to ask questions of the meteorologists, learn how forecasts are made and see the office’s large array of computers filled with weather data and images.
