Do you know World Meteorological Day? What month is it now?

World Meteorological Day, also known as International Meteorological Day, is the anniversary of the establishment of the World Meteorological Organization, which falls on March 23rd every year.

The origin of World Meteorological Day

Originally an unofficial international meteorological cooperation organization, the International Meteorological Organization was reorganized into the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) on the first anniversary of the entry into force of the WMO Convention signed by representatives of member States, that is, 195 1, and became an intergovernmental international meteorological cooperation organization, and established relations with the United Nations.

1960 The Executive Committee of the World Meteorological Organization decided to designate March 23rd as the World Day of Remembrance, and requested member countries to hold celebrations on this day every year to widely publicize the important role of meteorological work. There is a central activity on World Meteorological Day every year. On this day, member States can carry out various forms of publicity and commemorative activities according to the central content of the year, such as organizing people to visit meteorological stations, holding mass celebration ceremonies with government leaders, holding exhibitions of meteorological instruments, equipment, photos, charts and materials, holding press conferences, reporting special articles and speeches in newspapers, radio stations and television stations, showing meteorological popular science films, and issuing commemorative stamps.

China is also one of the founding members of the World Meteorological Organization.
