KGW Vault: Weather forecast from the late 1950s

A viewer asked for an old KGW weather forecast, so we delivered. Here's a 1959 clip from KGW's very first meteorologist, Jack Capell.

Well done! Lots of information provided although they didn’t have as much technology as we do today.

This whole state looks like its about 75 degrees. I wondered how they did it before digital boards.

This Meteorologist is more informative than all the "Chinese fire-drill" stuff we see today.

How world he have learned all those temperatures back then?
Did he call a different phone number to get EVERY temperature?
